Technology in the classroom

There are so many positives and negatives concerning technology. On the one hand, it provides us with access to information we might not normally have. It allows us to receive and transmit data at a much faster pace, and encourages long distance learning. However, technology can also hinder students' learning. When it comes to internet in the classroom, we can't control students using Myspace or chat programs. Technology also cuts out a certain quality of effort and increases the chances for plagerism.
