Have you ever taken a moment to think about how and when you were introduced to technology? Before today, I never thought about how I gained the knowledge to be able to use the technology in todays world. I grew up with televisions, computers, cell phones, and many more forms of technology. I somehow was able to learn how to use these incredible tools by simply just growing up with them. However, there have been many advances in technology since I was introduced to them and they are still advancing. There are constantly new forms of technology every day.
I am currently taking a class that brings up the idea of education through social media. one of the first assignments was to make an infographic about my views and experiences with technology.
I found it genuinely interesting to think about my first memories of technology, how I learned to use it, how my usage has changed over time, and what I think about technology as a whole. We are in an era where technology is beings used more and more.
Technology is being used all around the world for many reasons. Teachers are using technology in class rooms as a way for student to learn. People are suggesting student are more motivated to learn when using a game on a computer. However, should children be growing up with the mindset that using technology is the best way to learn?
