Embracing the Future: My Philosophy of Digital Learning

  In today’s dynamic world, the fusion of learning and technology has changed education, opening an era of infinite opportunities. As a future educator, my philosophy revolves around the belief that digital learning isn’t merely a tool but a gateway to promoting curiosity, encouraging collaboration, and nurturing a lifelong love for learning.

Digital Resources for the Classroom

  A great digital resource is of course YouTube. YouTube is a digital resource that can be used in a classroom to show videos to the class to analyze, evaluate, and even create education videos to share with each other.

This is also a great tool for bilingual students to practice for their TELPAS test. It can help them to practice for their speaking portion of their test...
