Teaching Student's Technology or Not

The article, 'But I don't want to Teach my Students How to Use Technology' by Trent Batson discusses the importances and reasons for teachers to acknowledge the technology innovation occuring in our world today. I agree with the article that this technology innovation has drastically changed the world we live in and continues to change the way we view and percieve many aspects of life. Even if teachers themselves avoid using technology their students do not necessairly and it is important that teachers are aware of how to use technology with their students because it is an intricate part of their world and to ignore this fact is to ignore the world around us. Teachers need to think about the best way to reach out, teach, and relate to their students which includes using technology.
