Nowadays, technology allows students to communicate their thoughts, and knowledge through many channels, as e mail, blogs, twitter, face book, among others.
So, with technology students are able to search for information, or acquire it from their teachers, and finally use all the tools that technology gives them to produce, and publish their works, thought, and opinions, so, in this way they can be known by many people, who can give them opportunities to be successful.
Besides that, students become an audience when they receive information from media, internet, peers, teacher, or networks. Also, they can review their peers publications and be critical thinker about many topics.
Therefore, with the advances in the technology field our kids are ready to learn how technology works, so we might enhance them to use technology in their daily lives, and of course in the learning process, so technology is not something that they have to be afraid about.
So, we as teachers have to be informed, and know the use of technology correctly in order to help students, and make their process easier; for example if a student does not know how to use a network, open an account, use the blog, or whatever it would be, we can teach them how to do it, because if we involve students in technology, they might be able to understand it.
As teachers we can be connected with the students’ preferences, and teach in a very creative way, in which we can link what is important for them and do the activities meaningful, for example create activities in which they can chose a topic of their interest, and apply technology to it (flash, blogs, publisher, Photoshop, pictures, videos, etc.)
