In this setting, the teacher would lecture his or her students for hours on end. Following these long drawn out lectures, students would receive written exams over what they had just learned. However, this style of learning and teaching has become out of date and students and classrooms are all suffering. There is however, a
Technology in the Classroom Many classrooms across the country are immersed with technology. Technology is used in a plethora of ways in today’s classrooms. The widespread use of technology in classroom instruction dates back to universities trickling down to pre-schools. When technology exists daily in the classroom; strategies are endless when dealing with classroom management.

can all image the same things when we think of learning; a group of students that are sitting in a classroom, being taught by a teacher or professor. This is true for most instances of learning, but when we take a closer look, we can see many different things taking places in the various classrooms across the education system.

The physical contexts for teaching and learning may include things like desk arrangements, classroom temperature, room lighting, classroom design and capacity, time of day, and so on (Shulman, 2004).

Students that are engaged in their education tend to be more productive and enthusiastic about coming to school and learning the material. As educators, it is our job to position and engage students in a manner that best helps them learn efficiently and consistently. Keeping students engaged during instruction is not only crucial for
