A New Tool: Literacy Technology Today
An important challenge in my course is helping teachers use technology to learn, and then learn to apply it in their own teaching. Some teachers enter my course less than willing to embrace technology. Although we live in an age of technological literacy, many of my students did not grow up with it, and this lead to uneasiness. Yet, most everyday experiences in our world, including the world of our students, involve technology. Even if teachers may prefer to avoid or postpone using technology in their classrooms, doing so should simply not be considered an option.
