Teaching with Technology

As teachers, we have been using technology in the classroom for a while now; however, as we all know, it’s how do we use that technology what makes a difference.  Aditi Rao, a technology coach in Houston, Texas and creator of the blog Teachbytes, reminds us the need for using technology in ways that change the classroom culture of teaching and learning. This shift ought to allow for teachers facilitating innovation instead of just promoting automating. Rao explains that teaching the same, and just adding technology, is mostly automatizing the learning process. Innovating the learning process involves the teacher facilitating students’ ownership of their learning using technology in ways that otherwise would not be possible.
