Integrating technology into the classroom is an effective way to connect with students of all learning styles. Advanced technology helps shape how students learn. By embracing and integrating technology in the classroom, we are setting our students up for a successful life outside of school. In addition, the use of technology enables the students to learn at their own pace. For example, almost all apps allow for individualized instruction in the classroom. Students can learn according to their abilities and needs. This form of teaching is great because it gives us the time to work individually with students who may be struggling.
