Fran Garcia explains how technology has to be applied in the correct way.

  

Positive	Negative
Technology is a way that teachers use to improve education.	Technology makes that our students don`t share their ideas orally.
Technology helps to students to create doubts and teachers have the interactive role to solve them.	There are not preparing teachers and schools to face the technology age.
Technology helps to improve abilities and capabilities.	Technology is not the change, is how teachers apply it.
Technology offers different kind of contents to children and teachers.	People don’t give the correct usage to technology.
Technology helps to make Collaborative work in the classrooms.	There are countries that don’t have the enough technology resources.

In my opinion, technology can help in our classrooms if we as teachers accept the change to the new age, we have to be prepared to teach and help our students. We must have in mind that technology is not the solution to our educational problems, it is just a way to improve it, we know that one of the educational goals is to prepare our students to face the outside world, and in this age we know technology is really used in most of the jobs. 

I really Disagree with Fran`s opinion about the oportunity that technology gives to the students to express what they think, is really sad to see how our community is creating"ROBOTS",children can`t express their feelings because they don`t have the ability to communicate with others, because they just do it by chat.
