"A Vision of Students Today"

I really enjoyed watching the video A Vision of Students Today. It opened my eyes for what it’s truly like for my students even though they may only be in 2^nd grade. Their worlds revolve around technology and they crave to have a piece of that in the classroom. I feel like I’m a digital native so I feel comfortable using technology in my classroom and I’m excited about possibly getting the opportunity to receive technology my students will be able to use every day in the classroom. I’m currently only able to do so many things in my classroom with technology due to lack of resources. I do however always use my smart board which my students find very engaging. We also have a laptop cart that we share amongst the grade level. I implement technology a lot using laptops in small group setting. I know that technology and our world is changing everyday so we have to find ways to keep our students engaged. If we don’t become part of the “digital age” what is that teaching our students?
