Technology In The Classroom

Technology In The Classroom

There should be lessons taught in classrooms that include the use of technology because in today's society the media and technology is growing... fast. I believe that students should come out of school already skilled in those areas. I think it is very important because these qualifications will be needed in the job fields.

Classroom Copyright

Classroom Copyright


When I was in school I thought that our teachers could just put in a movie for the class to watch if the weather was bad during recess time. The copyright laws for classrooms says that teachers can only use media clips that pertian to the lesson plan without being personally liable. Global Grid for Learning is a great place where teacher can visit online to get copyright-cleared information and media for the classroom. It is important to make sure  that copyright issues are taking care of because as a teacher you do not want to have to pay a fine over pictures, or sounds, or video clips.
