Applying Creativity Through Technology Can Expand Learning
Technology is just a modern tool that is the same as whiteboards and posters. Creativity can be used with technology to create wonderful lessons for students. But this creativity can also expand learning in many ways. One reason is that technology can be a good visual tool for students. Teachers can use Smartboard, video clips, etc. to show visually what they want their students to learn. Another reason that creativity with technology can expand learning is through projects. Teachers can assign projects that has the students create amazing projects with different types of technology like Powerpoint, Captivate, etc. The teacher would need to teach their students first how to use this technology so that they will not be confused when they are doing their projects. One last reason is that teachers can create lessons with technology to advance interactivity with the students. The biggest example of this is Smartboard because teachers can have the students come up to the board and solve problems like math equations and that is good practice for the students. Overall, I think that technology creativity can really expand learning in classrooms because of what these different types of technology can do for students and teachers.
