Next Generation Learning

How small our world is becoming, when only 100 years ago the world would have seemed too massive to grasp. The opportunities that technology is presenting in the field of Education, is merely astonishing. People can chat across the world, student’s can read, post, blog, email, twitter information to other student across the world too on research and presentations, or parents can view their children’s education daily.
The video I watched entitled, The Next Generation Learning, was exciting for me to view as a future Educator. No longer is learning one dimension, as the child said, “Children use to sit in desks all day, not anymore,” how exciting to think about all of the possibilities for tomorrow. Many children have suffered and been labeled with some type of learning disability, when often times they are struggling with the education method of the day. The new availability of technology for teachers to reach out with to students as more and more technology becomes available will surely revolutionize the world of Education.
I feel sure that I am going to take every opportunity to continue to broaden the world of learning for my students and expand their knowledge in the world of technology. Regardless to the subject area you teach, learning should be fun, and that is one aspect of education today that I find so fascinating compared to the past few years in which it has seemed more important to teach subject matter for standardized testing, than it has to make learning fun and interesting.
