interaction and collaboration amongst peers along with teacher help. Technology can be used
individually or as a group, either way there is some sort of interaction with technology in the
classroom. It is especially important for kids in secondary education to understand how to use
technology properly, and to adapt when something changes. Technology teaches a lot when used
intentionally and purposefully.
Integration technology can be used to bring students to work together. It is the teachers
job to give technology a reason to be used, and what it needs to be used for. Also, it is important
for teachers to explain why it will be important for the future, and that technology will always be
around. Overall, there are different instructional technologies for different grade levels that
result in interaction and collaboration in the classroom.
