How is digital learning going to change schools and education

I though I would try something different and write an essay on a topic that is related to technology and problems we face in the world.

Are schools doing kids good by teaching them the same exact way for the last 100 years. I think education and schools need to change just like technology has been changing and adapting in the last 30 years.

How should technology effect us in a school? We should incorporate technology into the class by having interactive boards. These boards can allow the teacher to display slide shows but the slides can be interacted with by having videos and interactive activities for the children to do. These slides and activities can be downloaded and taken home to do on a computer or tablet.

Having technology can also have a huge benefit with paper reduction. A child would only need to carry a laptop or tablet with them to do their work. Each desk can have a charging station. There will be no need for a child to carry lots of books around because every book and textbook would be on their tablets.

The biggest issue people face when using tablets and laptops they cannot do mathematics. We should develop apps that allow you to use a digital pen to write on the tablet. The app could also have a feature where you can share work once it is done so that the teacher can mark it.

I think that schooling should have an entire revamp to keep keep up with society's technology. Incorporating technology into school can change the way we learn and teach important technology skills required for work in the future.
