Technology and computers are additional tools available to teachers. The way new technology is integrated into the existing curriculum to enhance student learning is the key. Teachers who have been successful with integrating technology into their instruction look at what they are trying to teach the students and match the appropriate technology to that specific discipline. These successful teachers also have a good mentor support structure in place to see how other educators have used technology within their content area. This is a great opportunity for teachers to learn from students.
Students enjoy and gain self-esteem when they feel that they are the experts in an area.
Students can serve as teachers for the teacher and other students, empowering students who may normally be shy and not engaged in learning. I am a rural teacher with only one computer in my classroom. Do not try to compete. Make do with what you are actually fortunate to have. There are many classrooms with only one computer.
