Better Technology in School

I think that teaching with more technology would be pretty cool in some was. But usually I don't really use the computer stuff unless I really haev to. For example, School Fusion is a good way to remember homework and and assignments but not for pleasure. Utah I think is about the same with other states cosidering technology. Maybe New York would be a litte ahead becuase it's such a large city. Even if we used all this new technology, it would help, but in the future when we all go off and get a job or career, there is going to be alot more, and newer technology to learn about.

Since we're reading Nothing But The Truth, which involves a boy who doesn't get along with a teacher, I want you to consider teacher-student relationships you've had in the past. Have you had teachers that you just got along with whether or not you did well in their class? Have you had teachers whose personality just didn't mesh with yours? Without naming names, expound upon these ideas and thoughtfully consider how personality differences or similarities have affected you in your classes.

I had a really cool math teacher in sixth grade. She was so fun!! And i hate math. She made math fun for me and I enjoyed going to that class. It wasn't long after the school year began that they had to get a new teacher. This teacher wasn't as good as the other one because she was monotone and didn't really act like she wanted to be there. The cool teacher showed up and liked what she did and had fun with it. When she left i did dred going to that math class and didn't learn as much.
