Technology alone can not move the trajectory of student performance. Tools such as technology must be leveraged in the right way to enhance teaching and learning. According to Ed Tech, there are five main strategies for effectively using technology:- Use of Multimedia - videos, pictures, and instantaneous information captures students' attention
- Utilization of Social Media - exchanging ideas through collaboration is motivating for students and builds community
- Using a Variety of Resources - podcasts, videos, OERs, blogs, and other resources are stimulating for all students but especially for special education and English language learners
- Making the Most of Games and Advantages of Gamification - challenging students through competition makes them eager for learning. Gamification can be a framework for education that can be employed anywhere with a mobile device to ensure learning continues outside of the classroom.
- Use Technology to Empower Students - artistic expression can be utilized for all students but especially the introverted students as they are given a voice through technology.
