Blog #2, 21st Century Skells

In class we have used technology in many different ways, to demonstrate that technology is not limited for entertainment purposes, but can and is not being used for educational purposes. Recently in class we used the Smartboard as a source of teaching students and making it fun for them to learn through the use of games on the Smartboard. The Smartboard is an interactive tool that the students can use to learn, and the teachers can use to teach, and go outside the box of typical teaching and learning approaches. Students are able to have fun while learning, and the learning becomes like a game to them, which makes the student want to learn, therefore it makes teaching easier, when the student wants to learn.
