Chapter 1

Focus Question: How do new technologies create new opportunities for teaching and learning?
Technology expands every year and we're constantly learning about them every year. Keeping up with technology is so important to learn becasue this world is changing every day and technology makes life really simple. Everyone can engage and participate with computer technology and promote the high levels of social networking and just becoming social in general.

Tech Tool link: http://computer.howstuffworks.com
This website is definitely mind blowing and very useful if you don't know how to use something or know how it works. I would recommend this website to others, but it does contain a lot of advertisments which could distract you. Overall, it's a good website for general knowledge, it shows a lot advancements on technology. Here's a link for you to check out and make your own judgements. Have fun:)

Summary and Connection
I can't believe technology has made it this far and i can't imagaine what it's going to be like in ten or twenty years from now. Technology is scaring me as well as many others because we want to be able to use our brains and think things through. I believe Technology should be used as a tool to further education, it shouldn't be the main thing people go to all the time. Knowledge is key and yes, technology can help you expand your knowledge but not take advantage of that. There are so many levels of Education and learning about Technology is a very exciting topic and Im looking foward to see how far we can go with it.
