Of everything you learned, what do you think will have the biggest impact on student learning?
Based on my past experiences, it is evident that technology is developing and transforming the classroom. However, that is very general. I would have to definitely say that assistive technology is a wave that will have a major impact on the way students think and act. Although all technology is assistive in its own way, I am talking about the technological tools that alleviate known and unknown handicaps. Tools such as Alpha Smart and the Zac Browser are revolutionary for not just the children with disabilities but their teachers as well. All classrooms can essentially become inclusive (including all students despite deficiencies).
Besides, the biggest problem in the classroom is the physical and cognitive disadvantage amongst children. Once the gap is closed, or at least made very narrow, we will truly be working in an environment where we can say “No Child Left Behind!”
