Classroom technology prepares students for the future by building lifelong skills. Technology encourages students to collaborate more, affording them the opportunity to communicate, work on team projects and share their strengths regardless of time or location. As students work together, they learn how to listen, work well with others and work through conflict to find the best solution. One of the top skills on an employer wish-lists is critical thinking. Employers don’t want to spend time explaining how to complete a task they just assigned in so much detail they could have just done it themselves. When schools deploy school-sponsored devices, each student is required to agree to a code of conduct regarding the use and material accessed on the device. By setting this level of accountability, students not only have the reinforcement of consequences but that they are in fact capable of being responsible. These devices will also teach students to adapt and instills career learning.
