- 1. Technology and Me A personal timeline of educational technology
- 2. Overview Hey guys! My name is Shawn Trela. I grew up in Kaneohe but started my education off in Manoa in the early 90’s. I graduated from Kailua High School in 2006 and went straight to UHM in the Fall of 2006. I didn’t know what I wanted to major in until a few years ago and decided to apply for the College of Ed. I plan on graduating in the Spring of 2011 and hopefully will be moving to the Mainland to teach middle/high school history.
- 3. Education Technology is… The way educators teach with technology in their classrooms. We are not just teaching our content area, but developing students so they are ready for the “real world”. Technology is everywhere so we need to teach our students how and when to use technology to their advantage. We are giving them technological tools, but we are also helping them know the right and the wrong way to use it.

- 5. Kindergarten Technology I remember sitting in front of a TV and watching Sesames Street with my classmates. We used this show to help us learn to count and read.
- 6. High School Technology In High School, technology was all around us. We were constantly using computers to write papers and we used the internet to research and chat with friends. Cell phones became really popular as well. In middle school, teachers didn’t yet need to worry about students texting during class. When I got to high school, that’s when it became a problems. Education Technology is important to me because we need to teach our students when and where to use technology. Students using their cell phone during class is not the best time to use technology. *I didn’t draw this picture. I found it on the internet…
- 7. College Technology Computers are used for research, papers, and entertainment Cell phones and video messaging are ways to communicate with home and far away friends Cars get us here and there TV rules many peoples lives
- 8. Technological Experience To me, getting my first laptop computer was a big step for me. With my laptop, I am able to keep my notes organized and neat.
- 9. Clickers in the Classroom Games make learning more interesting Healthy competition allows students to challenge themselves as well as others Teachers are able to use this instead of paper and pencil tests Different learning style
- 10. My Vision…. When I think of classrooms “back in the day”, I think of one learning style and paper and pencil tests. This doesn’t allow all the different types of students to learn to the best of their abilities. I want my classroom to be full of technology and I want this technology to help all the different types of learning styles. Equality is something that I want to strive for.
- 11. Challenges for Teaching Students using technology in inappropriate ways. Students are finding ways to use technology to cheat. Technology like TV and computers get in the way of studying and creative learning.
- 12. Words of Wisdom With great power comes greats responsibility… - Spiderman We must teach our students control and safety when it comes to technology not just how to use it.
