Implementing+Technology










 * Teachers are using technology everyday, whether it is creating lessons or materials on the computer, checking e-mails, writing IEPs, taking attendance, or copying papers, etc. Teachers need to think about how technology is going to be implemented into the classroom if it is available to them. Also, we as teachers, need to think about what is the best type of technology, if any, we can use to integrate into the lessons in order to make them more meaningful. ****This occurs in the** **analysis phase when a teacher decides what he or she wants the students to learn. What are the goals and objectives for the lesson that is going to be implemented and what type of technology, if any, will be implemented? During this phase, the teacher will decide what he or she is going to teach, what kind of materials the teacher is going to use and what is the best method of teaching the lesson. The teacher will decide or think about the different types of technology that can be used for the instruction, whether it is a PowerPoint, DVD, Smartboard, computer, etc. During the development phase, the teacher will create materials for the lessons.**
