Be Our Guest

Today's guest blogger post is a little different than most. As a technology integration coach, I am obviously heavily pushing the use of technology in schools. I thought it might be fun to hear from the other side, so this guest post is brought to you by a fifth grader.

At my school we don’t use much technology. If technology is being used it is
for a test, research, or reports. Technology is a huge resource to everyone
especially on homework, but in school it might be a good idea for these few
reasons. When you become an adult you use technology daily if you teach
students how to use technology in their youth that could help them tons in their
later life.
Technology is full of websites that children could use to learn and help them in
their school work. In my school the younger kids do that all the time. My school
has a computer lab that maybe you might like too. We use our lab for research or
big end of the year tests, but only with supervision from our teacher. For some of
the younger kids the lab is used for learning websites for children but still with
adult supervision.
As you can see technology can be a good thing but if you use the wrong way it can
be dangerous. My school is very safe about technology and it has helped my grade
and everyone else learn and progress throughout the years. If your school uses
technology and is safe about it, it can be very helpful.
