Teaching using technology!!

Technology has always been a challenge for me in all aspects of my life, but today, if you do not face technology, you are out. As an English teacher, it isn't different. You know you could be doing more, using more tech resources, but many teachers tend to be in the comfort zone. The internet is a huge see of opportunities for us educators, but many times teachers choose not to swim or even dive in it. Our students are no longer learning in the old style - the book-teacher-classroom kind of class. Our students want and demand more when it comes to technology. That is why I decided to start my blog. It is a great way of connecting teacher - student - classroom. Using this tool, any educator is able to be around their students and learn from them. We need a hub to be closer to our students and to exchange knowledge with them out of the classroom. I'm a beginner in this blog world, but I'm having a wonderful time.
