1. Identifying knowledge inputs that are useful in designing lessons that integrate technology.
Having knowledge of the content to be covered in class is very important because how else are you going to teach? As a teacher its your responsibility to research more in debt about the subject because you then can: one: be knowledgeable about the subject, two: so you can answer the students questions as they arise and three: because you can use the resources you used while acquiring the information for the class.
2. Why is it that most beginner teachers teach like how they were taught? I guess its because they have nothing else to stand on. I know that when I was teaching in Cambodia I did a lot of what I was use to, which usually resulted in counting to 3 when needing the attention of the class. I used a lot of the same punishment tactics too.
3.I was limited when it came to technology because of the circumstances, but I do remember using my computer to show different things online when I didn't have the material.

5/5 Such good reflection tied to what you have experienced! Unless we work to try new strategies, we tend to teach like we were taught. Technology forces us to be creative and brave in trying new teaching strategies!
