PLN week 1.1

In the blog The Ficschbowl, about teachers being technologaclly illiterate is a very interesting blog that has a lot of usefull information. In my eyes here is What Matters from the blog The Ficshbowl.
What matters to me in this blog mostly is how it explains how teachers who don't know how to use technology is a bad thing and that those who dont are holding students back from learning so much more than they could from a book. This matters to me because it shows me how much technology has dramaticaly improved learing.
This realates to what we're doing in class more than anything. This is because in our classroom we use laptops to help us extend our knowledge and help us learn more. Also having a teacher that knows how to work a computer well really helps when every student in the class is using a computer.
This also relates to the world. The way it relates to the world is if your using computers all through school it will eventually lead to greater education, and if you don't it will be harder once you enter the real life. This is because if you get a job and you have to use a computer and you dont know how to use a computer you'll fall behind in work, and by that time there will be someone who knows how to do their job correctly and could take your job at anytime.

Alex, I defidently agree with what you said and I think that we defidently should get more tech. in the classrooms that it would defidently make a difference to how students perform and how they learn.
