Using Technology with Classroom Instruction

When used effectively, technology can enrich students’ learning, encourage project-based instruction, and help give students the skills they need to succeed in the 21st century. As an educator, how do you make sure you’re using the right tools, apps, and programs to maximize your students’ learning?
