Test: my name is actually "Kara" :)

Does technology make a difference in the learning process or could you teach just as well without it?
 * Technology both aids and hinders in the learning process. It helps teachers in grading efficiently and staying organized. It is stimulating and captivating in the task of attaining students' attention. I'm sure there are many more benefits that technology brings to the classroom, however, there are definitely consequences when plaigarism is so easily achieved and phones in the classroom and other technologies create great distractions for students. Social media also greatly effects the learning environment as students participate in cyber bullying.

Are students today fundamentally different than students in the past?
 * Overall, no. But I do believe that students face different challenges today than in the past.
