Pros and Cons of Technology in the Classroom

The pros of having technology in the classroom are many students will focus more of their attention on the lesson instead of focusing their attention on something else and being distracted. Another pro of having technology in the classroom is students will be more excited to learn the lesson rather then focusing on either their ipods or their texting or wasting their time looking at theclock waiting for the class to be done.

The cons of having technology in the classroom is students will take the oppurtunity to take out their phones and text or take out their ipads or ipods and look up videos and listen to music.
