Classroom setup The most basic classroom setup, which allows instructors to use technology as part of their
teaching, is one in which there is a computer, a network connection (either wired or wireless) and a projection system. This allows instructors to perform demonstrations, present material, illustrate how to use software, show Web sites, etc.
Teacher involvement and readiness Instructors should spend an efficient amount of time to prepare themselves for whatever is
going to be taught. They should familiarize themselves with their presentation, that way they can interact with students while teaching so that the information can be learned better.
Student participation To have real participation and interaction, students need to have computers with network
and power connections they can use in the classroom. For college level students, the best interaction in a classroom setting where the class is taught primarily using some form of technology is to bring their laptop to class. That is if the professor allows them.
Instant messaging in an after school tutoring lab was one helpful way.
The students can choose to email a problem or something else that they needed help with, and the teacher would instant message them back explaining in detail how to solve the problem and/or answer the question.
PowerPoint's are used in the classroom setting when the teacher wanted to present new information.
Technology has delivered an ever-accelerating learning curve which everyone must keep up with, teachers have begun to see that they must learn to work differently with their students in order for education to remain relevant and effective.Teachers have developed the ability to demonstrate how these technologies can be used for academic purposes and convey the educational advantages of computers and the Internet to their students.Some teachers often take classes on how to use certain features and devices in their own classroom.
