1. Name two advances or developments that have occurred in technology since the 1970s that you feel have had significant effects on education, and explain why these technological changes had such effects.
I think that the Microcomputer had a big outbreak in the late 1970s. This computer was used by teachers in schools and started to spread very fast. This was just a preview of what else was soon to come. Another advance that has helped many throughout the years would have to be the World Wide Web. This was great to find information on just about anything. It would also be good for school use.
2. Discuss one emerging trend in technology and the effect it could have on classrooms and schools.
I feel that Wireless Connectivity is a good emerging trend to talk about. This cuts back on too many cables being hooked up and also the freedom to move around and be in different areas.
An electronic portfolio is developed to keep a collection of the students work over a period of time. This arrangement is to show the student how he or she progressed.
