Technology in Lesson Planning

Think about a lesson that you have developed in your tenure as a student in the college of education and describe how you could integrate technology into the lesson in order to promote student understanding and engagement.

The easiest and most recognizable  form of technology is the use of computers and software programs. Integrating websites, games, and presentation tools are easy ways to use technology to make lessons engaging for students and core concepts exciting. Content becomes more relatable when lessons incorporate their modern interests such as television and video games, which is possible with the use of computers. SmartBoards can also be incorporated into lessons because they easily display visuals, show videos and make interactive activities/virtual worksheets. Also, document cameras and projectors can be used by both students and teachers to model and demonstrate their process of learning by showing their work to the class or magnifying it to be more visible form.
