Kids+These+Days

I think kids these days are inudated with stimuli, through music, tv, internet, and just living and interacting in the world around them. In order to reach these children, teachers need to update their models of learning to appeal to what the students are interested in. By incorporating technology into the classroom, the teacher can get the attention of his/her students and retain the attention for a much longer period of time. Also, making the lesson seem relivant to what the students care about will also help ensure a successful classroom environment.
