IT companies are constantly working with teachers and professors on ways to advance technology in the classroom and get students involved. In this information age, the traditional way of lecturing can seem boring to today's generation. Therefore, teachers frequently use some of the latest technologies for class lectures. Salisburypost.com had a good article about the Rowan-Salisbury School System and its use of technology in the classroom. This school system is a huge user of the ActivTable, which is a software that allows students to use handheld devices such as mobile phones to answer questions in class. Teachers discussed, in the article, how exciting it is to see the way students engaged in classroom activity with this software. The software also allows teachers to make enhanced PowerPoints and flip charts that grab students' attention. Here's a link to the article: http://www.salisburypost.com/News/031512-edu-Teachers-see-future-of-technology-qcd

Having a child still in grade school I support the use of technology in the learning process. Today's IT world demands that our youths are expose to it if we expect them to compete and further their education.
