Digital Technologies for Education

            A digital technology is supposed to be used to refer to the ever-evolving suite of digital software, hardware, and architecture. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_technologies_in_education)This method is used in learning and teaching in the schools for students. The concept of digital technologies also addresses the reality that the young develop their learning easily, by teaching themselves how to use and apply the technologies and properly under guidance of teachers. Some people use digital technology to help them research, record, take pictures for their class, etc.

Technology has done many things for us in today’s society especially for education and schools. ( http://www.essayfrog.com/essays/9477/preview) Technology in the school system has impacted the students and teachers in many positive ways, including virtual field trips, testing tips, teacher resources, class web sites, and lesson plans. (http://www.essayfrog.com/essays/9477/preview) With computer use in our schools, we have access to many different sources and various types of learning.

            Digital technology was used a lot in this class. I did not really get taught how to use this method any better than I had already known, because from being in the engineering major and being able to already know how to use computers I already knew how to research, get on different websites that helped for the class, etc.

Although I already knew a lot about this method I liked how we learned about the blog website. This was the main source that helped me to learn. It taught me that I can make a portfolio better by being able to arrange my essays in an order that I want them in and also be able to talk out to my audiences better. Using the blogger website was a big part of this method, because it lets you express your feelings towards what you want to write and posts about and not everybody has to see it, it could only be only shared to your friends or kept private.

As time progresses on I will start to use this website more often. At times when I feel like there is something going on in my life that I would want to write about and share to the public so they will not make the mistakes or regret things that I have already done, I will do so. I am glad that I learned about this website, because this is a very knowledgeable site.
