+ What do you like best about BYOT?
Student Feedback It makes learning easier and more efficient.
People are more engaged in learning, teachers are less cranky as well because students are better involved and awake.
It allows students to independently search, find answers, and discover without having to wait on the whole class to cooperate and listen. It also provides a variety of websites and other resources for each student to find answers and solutions, rather than only having the teacher's search results.
The teachers trust us which is a good feeling.
It is something we know how to do, and it is enjoyable!
Learning how to use technology.
Being able to use our technology in a positive way.
We don't have to hear the teachers rant on and on about a topic. With technology, we can put in our ideas and have MORE INTERACTION. <----- I need that.
