The article, Effects
of Technology on Classrooms and Students describes the benefits of students
being active learners. Using technology
within the classroom allows students to take an active role while making
decisions on how to find, obtain, work, and present information. While the teacher still sets guidelines for
assignments and projects, the classroom becomes more student centered. Effects
of Technology on Classrooms and Students describes students becoming more motive
and developing higher self-esteem. Students
become challenged to demonstrate what they have learned rather than pressure to
perform well on exams. Teachers also claim that students are able to
complete more complex tasks and collaborate with the support of technology in
the classroom. The single downfall this
article mentions is that students may have a tendency to spend too much time
changing graphics, fonts, colors, design, etc.
However, I feel if students want to stress specific points, these
technicalities may be necessary.
