Visualizing with Technologies

Visualizing with Technologies is a great way to expand learning. I believe all students should be able to learn as much as possible in as many ways that could be possible given. Being that technology is very important key of today’s living, students should be able to visualize different things with technology. I know as a future teacher to see may students develop different skills while just visualizing will do nothing but make me proud and also help them to realize that there are plenty ways to learn.  I love that Discovery Education Streaming (United Streaming) and Safari Montage are resources that can help teachers with coming up with different lessons and ideas that will allow them to make sure students are learning by visualizing with technology. Being that I will be a mathematics teacher the sketch pad for geometry will help students to actually see different angles and why they may be certain degrees.  It can also help with developing different geometry proofs that really shows that there is a lot of visualizing being done to help with new discoveries. The impact that this skill has on our student’s is that it allows them to be able to make discoveries and also become well equip in concrete thinking. Learning as such helps students to clarify difficult things that may need a understanding and abstract concepts, making them more comprehensible. It also helps visualizes and verbalizers to reason and represent ideas visually without the artistic skills required them to produce original illustrations.
