Technology Integration in the Content Area

What factors must the teacher consider when planning to integrate technology?

When planning any lesson there are a number of factors a teacher must take into consideration such as the age of their students, students current knowledge and skills, time constraints, and so on. These same factors must be looked at when creating any lesson that integrates technology. It is also important for the teacher to make sure he/she is fluent enough in the technology they choose to use for the lesson so that they will be able to help students in any way. When integrating technology it may take longer to lesson plan and to execute the plan so this must be acknowledged by the teacher and they must be willing and capable of  this!

  1. Being fluent with the technology you are using is a must! Glad you put that in there!
