I consider myself to be a digital native. I have always found technology to be a very useful tool. I enjoy using it personally as well as professionally in the classroom.
I was introduced very early in life to technology, though it was nothing like what we have today. My father was an engineer before he retired, so was able to bring the technology that he used at work to us at home.
The first computer that we had always crashed on us! It was a fun way to learn though.
I am truly excited for the students of today to be able to get their hands on the various technologies that are out there.
The thing that I find to be most frustrating is the fact that the resources are not in the schools that need to be. Funding is always a huge issue. The hardward might be there, but the updates and such are not.
Students also may not have access to the things they can use at home, which as a teacher, we need to be sensitive about.
