It is very hard to teach anything without having the tools needed to complete a task or lesson. These tablets will help me to be able to do interactive labs with my students and we can be able to explore science in many different ways besides just using our textbooks. My idea is to make science fun and when they leave my class the not only learn science but they can apply it in many different ways in their everyday life. Most often, students are passive listeners and lectures are not going to cut it all the time. I think by introducing more technology exercises they will not only learn science but have fun doing it. I believe the more hands-on and interactive stuff we do the more they will learn.
