         <description><![CDATA[<div>With technology rapidly advancing (to the point that some homes are fully automated), society needs to adapt to these new findings even more rapidly. This begs the question, then; how can we adapt to use these new tech discoveries in the classroom? From automating assessment (see: Plickers) to interactive whiteboards (see: Smartboard), integrating technology into the classroom has never been easier. I believe that we have to be careful, though, as to not let technology take the place of actual instruction - it should be a supplement. When technology and proper teaching methods work in harmony, I believe that that is the most effective classroom environment possible. Smart classrooms are a thing of the future, and like any new technology, we have to learn how to adapt to it and how to use it in our lives. What do you think about smart classrooms?</div>]]></description>
