Chapter 6 Response

Growing up in a small town with a high school that provided many technological options, I think I would be more comfortable and more confident in my teaching if I were allotted more digital technologies in my classroom. As a future Special Education major, I am going to need a lot of activities that will be fun, educational, and colorful, which is what a lot of digital technology provides. Ipads, computers, SmartBoards, and electronic readers could be essential tools in my future classroom, given that they are designed to enhance learning and make education as entertaining as possible. Along with this thought though is how some of the students might handle this delicate equipment if one is angry at a game they were playing or accidentally dropped one of the electronics. Ideally, I would have volunteers to help me out with supervising the students while they learn on the technology provided, and if I were not provided volunteers, I would maybe use this technology with the whole with the class by reading a book on the SmartBoard or by playing math games on the Ipad.
