Type I and Type II Technology

Type I: The use of technology in the classroom that does not change the class very much. 

1. Writing out rough drafts of papers by hand and typing the final draft.

2. Using CD or MP3 player in class to listen to a song only only once.

3. Not allowing students to work with different computer programs.

Type II: The use of technology in the classroom that helps expand the class and allows students to learn in different ways. 

1. Allowing students to use blogs and update their drafts on a regular basis so the teachers can edit the drafts whenever needed.

2. If a teacher burns a CD with a song/s needed for the class on it, the students can listen to the song/s as much as they need to.

3. Students should be allowed to use different computer programs so they can be creative and choose one they like.
