Have you ever heard someone say “technology is just a tool” when referring to the use of computers and electronic media in education? Do you agree with that statement? I agree that technology is a tool that can be used in education. Where I differ from the above statement is the use of the words “just a tool.” Technology is not just a tool, it is a power tool for educating children.

Students adopt some combination of three primary learning styles. The three learning styles are auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Of these, each student will typically have one that is more predominant than the others. Auditory learners learn best by hearing information, visual learners learn best by seeing information, and kinesthetic learners learn best by doing.
