From class today I have thought a lot about children not socializing as much due to technology. As a teacher I want to encourage my children to work together. I want to have them work in groups, pairs and as a class so they are able to discuss and spend time together. However I don't feel like technology is evil or destroys socializing so I plan on using as much of it as I can in my classrooms. When it comes to me taking classes or updating information online I would if they presented information for my career or if I found information I was interested in. I feel like this is a great opportunity for some people especially stay at home moms to continue to gain more knowledge.
