Q: What factors must the teacher consider when planning to integrate technology?
A: The same consideration should be taken when integrating technology into the classroom as you would for any other lesson plan. Treat all lesson plans the same - always ask yourself these questions: What will my students get from this lesson? - Is this appropriate for the age group/grade level of my class? - What materials will be needed? - What background knowledge do the students already have for this lesson? - I think you get the Idea. For more questions to ask yourself go to page 240. Not only do these questions need to be considered but, there are a few technology ones as well (see page 240). When using technology teachers should always back up their work.
