Technology
Teaching, learning, and technology are fundamental parts of society – in and out of the classroom. Teaching involves one’s own learning of content, researching pedagogical practices, and applying and integrating that knowledge with technology to foster an environment of learning. Learning is something that is never finished or completed, there’s always room for more growth.
