This chapter does a great job of tying in all that we have learned about technology. Overall it focuses on the idea that technology is causing us to rethink everything from “ how kids learn” to “ rethinking careers”. Life long learning takes place everyday in both the classroom and outside of the classroom. It is the job of the teacher to motivate and encourage students. Motivation is key and technology is a way of both meeting their interests as well as keeping students motivated. This in return will keep the students more engaged in learning. Technology is changing the way we do everything. It’s changing they way kids learn, changing what should be learned, and how it should be taught. As a teacher I intend to keep up with the new age of technology as much as possible so to provide my students with the more beneficial atmosphere. This era proves that teachers need to find ways to motivate and excite children about learning. This can only be done by keeping up with the times and catering to children interests. Doing this is not entirely too difficult it's just a matter of want in the teacher.
