Video: The Connected Classroom

I was honestly very impressed with that video and it truly made me think how I really need to teach my students technology. It was sad to see the old classroom and how it is so different now a days, but it is so much better. However, the only way it can get better is if I teach my students technology. I really liked how it put that we are preparing them for their world. That is really how we should think about technology. Its crazy that we are helping them now for technology we don't even know is going to happen. It really struck me when I saw the I-Pod vs. the big juke box because everything is so much faster and easier for our students. They need to be taught that to survive in their generation. If they don't know how to use technology then they will suffer when they have their jobs. Our students need to know technology and only teachers can teach it. I want to be that teacher and I will be! I love this motivating videos!
