Is It Okay to Be A Technologically Illiterate Teacher?

It’s not exactly okay to be a technologically illiterate teacher. I believe that some teachers will have their strengths and weaknesses using new technology, but all teachers should be able to use a computer efficiently to help teach students. I like the statement he made about teachers that are not technologically literate and are unwilling to make and effort to learn is equal to the teachers 30 years ago who didn’t know how to read and write. Everybody that is going to college this day and time has the opportunity to learn about computers and be somewhat technologically literate.
I believe as future educators we should be ready to learn at all times. If you’re not willing to learn new advances then this is not the job for you. Every year new tools are made to help with the way teachers teach their students. Ten years ago computers were rarely used in the classroom and now it’s the way to go. Most of us will teach for 25 to 30 years before retiring. Just think where technology will be at that point. That’s why every one of us should be willing to learn day in and day out.
