Lessons Learned

There is so much technology out there. I feel like I know how to do things with technology but then I hear about things that I have never heard of. I forget that the students today for the most part will know more about technology because of the time they were born. I look at my grandma who is afraid to use the computer and email and I think it is so weird but it is only because she doesn't know how to use it and it isn't something that she is familiar with. I hope that I do not feel too scared to use a technology. I guess I just have to keep my mind open and try to learn things as they come. I can take classes or online tutorials to find out more information so that I do not get in that state of being overwhelmed by technology. Technology is a great thing and there are so many things out there that I can still learn about so I need to be open to these things and learn from everything. I am worried though about students not getting the people skills that they need from technology. I don't know, maybe in the future people wont need to meet face to face like they do today, so they wont need the same skills. It is just so weird how things change. I will need to keep with the times so that I can teach my students how they will need to be taught in that time. It will be interesting to see.
