Relying on technology cont....

So my first experience of using technology in the classroom did not go smoothly. I have learnt a lot though, firstly as a teacher I need to always have a back up plan and secondly always test it out thoroughly before using it in the classroom. I do think this is one of the major reasons that teachers are hesitant to embrace technology in the classrooms. Technology has come a long way, but it's success still relies on factors such as power sources, downloading speed, and internet availability. I believe in time this will all change and their reliability will increase as it has continued to do over the history of technology, and this will encourage more teachers to bring technology into their classrooms.
