 * Reflection**

Students learn in many different ways. Introducing technology into lesson plans, curriculum, and instruction gives students many different venues for learning. Some students learn better by reading, some by hearing, and some by seeing. Use of technology makes it easy to provide all of these options, even all at the same time, so that the most students in the classroom get the best opportunity to learn a lesson. Students who have a diffucult time writing may be very successful when able to type, or to speak their answers into a recording device attached to a computer.
