Week 6 Social Media Task.

• When the year is 2016 and there has been so many innovations in technology, its impossible for tech to stay out of education. There are many benefit that technology has brought to education. However there are also some downsides to letting tech into the classroom. 
  
  
  Some pros that technology has brought in the classroom consist of making learning more fun with games and puzzles, allowing classrooms access to information with a click of a button, and allowing special needs students the ability to get the education they deserve. 
  
  
  There are some cons that take place in education due to technology as well. Some cons are being distracted very easily and a sense of disconnection. Also some resources that people can come across won be as credible as other journal articles that are out there. Also not everyone can afford the technology that is used in class so she people go home they might be left out of the discussions and homework. 
  
  
  I know that technology has a place in education and we have a lot to thank technology for. It brings us great information (when we recognize the resource and know the difference between a valid and invalid source), allows special needs students great opportunities, and makes learning fun. However with so many distractions that tech brings in the classrooms and the fact that not everyone can afford computers, technology can have it's down sides. 
  
  
  With technology becoming more easily and economically available I think that with moderation technology has a huge place in education and its never going to go away.
