In today's ever-changing and developing world, I do not feel that teachers should have the option not to incorporate modern technologies into their instruction. I think that in order to successfully teach their students, teachers must be able to relate to them. This relationship depends on teachers' ability to keep up with advancements in technology. Because students tend to be extremely tech-savvy, in order to stay on top of the times, teachers must bring modern-day technologies into the classroom. When teachers engage in advanced teaching techniques, students will be more inclined to pay attention and learn the curriculum at hand. Given the option to not adhere to developing approaches of learning, I think that many teachers would stick to basic, simplified approaches. While they may be somewhat effective, these methods lack the ability to captivate students and spark their interest. For this reason, I advocate the necessity of incorporating current technologies into the classroom.
