Technology''s Role In Teacher
Education
The Dept. of Education can assist
greatly with online technical tutoring for
teachers. The requirements for teaching degrees
must also begin to, at least, introduce high tech
as part of their required credentials.
The
realities of a high tech employment environment,
just about demands that both teacher and student
be prepared for what really lies ahead for them.
In addition, sheer volume, in terms of student
population, makes and old fashioned chalk board
approach almost obsolete. The effective use of
technology can also address the problem of
acquiring highly skilled teachers who are willing
to work in problem low income areas.
A
coordinated approach with the educational
community and leading software developers, would
lead to specifically developed teaching tools,
geared especially for the educational environment.
Interactive diagnostic and development software
would greatly enhance overall productivity of both
teacher and
student.
