Technology can provide us with information that textbooks can't, and can keep us informed on the latest changes in our world. It is also a great way to get students engaged in learning information they may have not initially been interested in. For emerging bilingual students technology can help bridge the language gap, and create an environment in which they feel apart of. I also believe that technology should not be used only individually. Instead it should be used in a collaborative way, where students are still engaging with one another. ]]> 2019-01-31 17:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/byerlycourtney/fo491m8ty3os/wish/326365734
