Prompt #1-Technology Throughout My Education

As an elementary student, learning about spelling and grammar were significant and taught through lecture by my teachers with the use of reading books and writing on the chalkboard.  I do not believe that technology played a role in my education in those early years.
As a I graduated into middle and high school education, the use of technology gradually played a small role. We watched movies on television in class that pertained to the lesson. I was instructed to use the Internet to write research papers when books did not provide current information.
During my adult college years, I use the Internet mainly to become more knowledgeable in areas that I were lacking, and when I need current and various information for projects and research papers. During my field experience observations, I learned about the SMART board. The teachers I observed also incorporated You Tube and Power Point into the lessons. During a discussion on the role of technology in education and education portfolios, I have became acquainted with the Library of Congress website last year.
