Blog assignment # 1

As futur teachers, I think we should be aware of the influence we can have on children's education. They are what matter the most. They are our future.

In one of the video, a sentence really catched my attention, " Teach them the way they learn best". Nowadays, technologies take such an important place in children's everyday life. We cannot act like if it wouldn’t make a difference if we decided to use them (the technologies) in our classrooms because it would.

We have the responsibility to learn how to use them. If the use of these technologies in class catches the attention of one student, isn’t worth it? Plus, it becomes really interesting to use them once we are used to it.

We have to think about the students first. If the technologies give us the opportunity to teach them the way they learn best, we shouldn’t hesitate!!
