As teachers, we throw a lot of different technology at students depending on which content area you teach. Have we ever taken the time to ask our students what their opinion is on all these web applications? This article is a teens point of view on various technology such as: tablets, teacher websites, google drive, khan academy, twitter, Evernote, and interactive whiteboards.
After reading this students critique, teachers really need to have a good understanding and purpose for using the technology in their classrooms. Technology can be overwhelming so we need to take the time to teach our students how to get the most out of each resource. Surprisingly, I agreed with most of this student's input on the various technology, but there are some that eye opening. This article leads to the idea that maybe we should get our own students to give input on what they think about the technology we use in our classrooms.
