Being a first year teacher I have come across a lot of problems getting my hands on the right technology. I do not want my students to fall behind because I cannot give them these things. I also have struggling students and, I know many apps and programs that will just capture their attention, helping these struggling students in the classroom. The world we live in today is not all books and paper. It's growing with technology and we need to prepare our students for the future not the past. I want to help not only this class but, all my classes in the future to be the innovators of the future.
