Future of Technology (April 18)

The future of technology is something that us as humans can comprehend, but can't fully understand.  I believe that we the American people, have become so use to having everything available at our fingertips, as technology has allowed us to do so.  The future of technology to me means more gadgets and technical devices that make our lives even faster and convenient than they currently are.  (Which is extremely fast by the way.)  There are always newer, bigger, and better inventions that are so nifty, often we can't even afford them.  The future of technology is always dealing with artificial intelligence, which includes the good, the bad, and the ugly.  This will impact us as teachers in many ways.  For one, cell phones are already a distraction in the classroom, because not only can students text, but they also have access to being online while you are teaching, and some can hide it better than others.  One of the benefits however, is being able to use the amazing inventions that the district provides for you to use in the classroom, including things like Smartboard, GarageBand, etc.
