Since this site will focus on media and technology in the classroom for my first post, I thought I would showcase a video that shows students ideas of technology. The video below is from the White House Student Film Festival. The video shows students of a variety ages ideas on technology. The students also get a chance to describe what classrooms in the future look like. Technology and media are becoming interconnected in our classrooms and teachers need to be aware of the good and bad of having technology. Teachers will need to be media literate to keep up with students and this video gives a rough idea of what students already know about technology so it can become a starting point for understanding children's relationships with technology.
As a future teacher I am excited to see what the future holds for our classrooms. I want to know what technology will be beneficial to my students as well as helpful to myself as the teacher. As a future teacher I need to realize that there will always be students that know more than I do when it comes to technology but that is not something that is bad. This video gives good insight into what students know about technology as well as what they think the future holds.
Enjoy!
