Students and teachers react to the use of technology in the classroom.

“I don’t like technology in the classroom because it’s too distracting.” -Freshman Lauren Glase

“It’s definitely easier to keep track of homework and notes, but at times it can also be very distracting.” -Freshman Brady Fritz

“I think there are definitely more benefits to the computers than there are scandals.  Computers allow us to have the Internet at our fingertips, but we need to know how and when to use it properly.” -Sophomore Katherine Flanigan

“I believe that technology is a benefit because it helps, at least me, get homework and work done quicker.  I can type notes faster than I can write them, so it’s a positive to me in the classroom.”-Junior Carrie Dukes

“Technology gives people opportunities that other people don’t have.” -Senior Luke Navin

“In my case, the pluses definitely outweigh the minuses.  When used correctly, it’s a great way to enhance student learning, but it can also be a great distraction for students from their learning.” -Science teacher Shane Lawler

“I think technology is an absolute necessity.  It’s a valuable tool.” -Science teacher Susan Kraft
