Students are differentThe brain changes and organizes itself differently based on the inputs it receives from “Do They Really Think Differently?” by Marc PrenskyPeople are changing and developing themselves depending on the needs they have in their life.

This is similar to the way our ancestors developed languages for their communication out of necessity.
- 10. Instructional Technology in the Classroom Students today are different. It doesn’t mean they can not learn , or that we can not teach. They have preferences for learning , so if the method teachers use match their style of learning, they could learn more effectively.My teaching As a teacher, we should be flexible and adaptable. I would try different types of technology in my class and find out what teaching style matches with my students. Also I would pay attention to what is going on in our society today and keep myself updated because I think education is influenced by society.
