Week 5

My attitude of technology in mathematics teaching has changed dramatically since I started taking this class. My previous idea of it was just the use of calculators and maybe once a year a computer demonstration of some sort, because that was all that I ever saw when i was in school. All my teachers ever did was use the white board or the projectors. I feel like I was deprived. Some of these technologies would have done wonders in helping me understand and love math even more. I think that technology is the key to fostering better understanding and interest in math even for students who don't like math or think they are good at it. I have just scratched the surface of some of the vast array of math technologies out there. There is no doubt in my mind that when I become a teacher that technology will be used as much as possible in my classroom.
