Technology in the Classroom

As the world around us continues to grow and improve especially in the world of technology it is essential that students and therefore teachers are efficient in understanding how to use the technology to their advantage.

During my time in the classroom I have gotten a chance to work with several instruments of tech that I have found useful for teaching.

I even had the pleasure of attending a TI-Nspire workshop with my AT class as well as working with 3-D lazer printers when I interned at the Cade Museum in the summer of 2016.
Below are a few of the ones I have found most useful.
