By watching the Innovative Digital Learning Environments video you can see how big an impact technology is having on education and how beneficial it can be for students of this century. We live in a world of constant changes and advances and we have to adapt everything to them if we want to stay up to date.
Currently Nearpod is used a lot at my school. I understand that it is an excellent tool since we can create more interactive lessons and tasks for students. Khan Academy is also used. The lessons adapt to the student and provide the teacher with data to monitor the growth of their students.
Personally, I like to use Canvas. I can create announcements and calendars for students. Also presentations and everything necessary to keep everything related to the classroom organized. In my district we have the opportunity for employees to have the app free of charge.
Although there are many places that have not yet been able to integrate many of these applications into the classroom, it must be something that continues to be worked on since today, just a notebook, pencil and book is not enough. Our students are trained to enter the world of technology and be able to get the most out of it.
