Technology: Machinery and equipment developed from the application of scientific knowledge.
Probably the biggest thing, most exciting part about technology is that it allows us
to expand the classroom, we can bring in clips from all over the world, from other experiences,
and basically it allows us to show students things that they otherwise wouldn't be seeing.
Students also use Google Docs and Gmail chats to work on group projects. The uses of technology
are endless, and the benefits affect people in a variety of ways. The one piece of software
that I use is called Jaws, it's a screen-reading software. What it does basically is it takes
all the text on a computer screen and it turns it into audio so that I can hear what I'm
doing. Today, not only do computers help with American education, but so do smartphones.
Well, most recently, the iPhone has really made my life a lot easier, using a, you know,
a cellphone that basically enables me to know exactly where I am all the time, and helps
me keep track of, you know, all my different contacts and appointments and where I need
to be at any given time. As well as the ability to get on the internet, you know, any time
that I want and look up information.
