Theories of Critical Thinking

    Preparing students for the future requires innovation and commitment from educators. Effective teachers adapt instructional practices, strategies, and technology to meet the needs of students. To embrace the constant changes in education, educators must be willing to try new things, take risks, and lead students beyond superficial exposure to rich, complex understanding. The articles reviewed suggest the integration of technology can engage students and enhance learning for both teachers and students. 
    The articles reviewed suggest that technology integration into the classroom is needed in order for students to develop skills necessary for success in the 21st century. Successfully implementing technology into the classroom is not a simple task. Teachers and students often face numerous barriers and challenges when striving to implement and use technology successfully.
    The articles suggest that the successful integration of technology principally depends on teacher knowledge and willingness to adapt to new ways of teaching. The articles also suggest that many personal, professional, and organizational factors related to teachers, schools, and the classroom impact the use of technology. Integration of technology can be a challenge for teachers. However, with proper training and support, technology can be beneficial for students and teachers.
    I believe technology offers opportunities for educational innovation for both students and teachers. As a school leader, allowing teachers to develop, learn, and grow in the area of technology should be a priority. New technologies can lead to more effective teaching. A technology-enriched learning environment requires diligence and commitment from all stakeholders. It is an ongoing process among educators and education stakeholders. However, it is a process that is essential as teachers strive to prepare their students for success.

  1. I agree that teachers must adapt to meet the needs of students. This is one of the biggest obstacles that teachers face is staying current with best practices. Technology is now a very important part of helping our students. While most teachers try to stay current with new technology, many struggle to adapt and change. However when organizations help to encourage and actually help train teachers it help in the promotion of teachers keeping up to help students be successful.
