A personal timeline of educational technology

My name is Matt AokiI started school in 1994 in Hawaii at

Noelani ElementaryI graduated from high school in 2007 from

Roosevelt HighschoolI first went attended college at Kapiolani

community college in (2007)When I finish my degree, I hope to become

a teacher, but am still undecided

Technology used for inspiring, and capturing the mind of learners

through networking, visual, and hands on learning.

Chalkboard for teacher to write on and students to participate with

Television to watch videos on

Computers for research and word processing

Over head projector for teachers to demonstrate work and write notes.

Online schooling Auditorium

projectors Laptop for excess

work Smart phone email

updates

Internet in households, knowledge at your fingertips

AOL instant messenger, communication with classmates (homework help)

Rise of google, search anything so easy and simple

Smart phones, mobile information.

I would like to use a social networking tool I love how they bring people together and a unity in a class room would be amazing. Ide also think a video recording of the class for students to study and review would be an amazing asset possibly through a private youtube channel?

I would like to see everything done through a tablet such as an ipad. Books everything remove “backpack” from the equation

The biggest challenge is money there are so many students and so much is needed, technology doesn’t come cheap. Keeping up is also going to be a challenge I’ve noticed adults just seem to become oblivious to the new I hope that not me (don’t want to be my dad “how do I turn this on”)

Technology is constantly evolving and as it does so will education.
