Technology is the present and future of out students. Very interesting on the different generations.
Don't use technology for technology sake.
Generational perspectives are starting points, not end points... all learners are essentially the same.
The real key to instruction is still based upon the human connection that is made between student and instructor.

Learned that "Instructors who are considering incorporating technology for the purpose of reaching the younger generation need to ensure that use of the technology will truly help this group with learning." It helps in providing "sound instruction"
Technologyis key and the future of the classroom however it is important for students to realize that can't be on the phone constanly in the real working world.
It is important to use technology that is suited to your classroom needs and enhance your course. Using technology just for the sake of using it may not be productive or beneficial to the classroom. I will be sure to implement technology in a way that students gain the most knowledge and can apply it to the subjects that I am teaching.
Technology that is used correctly can be a great supplement and support to a sound instruction. Students need technology that is user friendly and readily available. Remember that we are teaching all generations so we need to incorporate a variety of technology.
Technology is the new way of students learning so must be used with strict precautions to avoid distractions. The goal for instructors is to keep the learner engaged in the lesson and help them learn more on topic being discussed.
Technology is an element that is neccessary. Understanding how and when to implement is important as well as setting up some very specific guidelines for the use in the classroom.
Interesting to know that there is not much differnece between Gen y and Gen z..
Got a better understanding about why the Gen y and Gen Z have developed such a dependancy on their devices, and how they feel the need to be connected. Intend to explore more/better ways of using technology to keep students interested and engaged in the classroom.
Technology is the future.
being able to use different techonologies avaliabel to the instructor and the student would be very beneficial the the learning experiece of different styles
Technology in the classroom is an absolute necessary. This was a good read.
