What do you think your classroom will look like in 5 years?

Wow! Who knows? This is an exciting question. Five years ago I never would have imagined document projectors, clickers, Smart Boards, classroom blogs, etc. It will be interesting to see where technology takes educators next! My hope for my classroom is that in five years I will have productive tools that supplement my teaching curriculum. Although technology can never replace effective teaching or curriculum, it can engage students and bridge gaps that teachers alone cannot. Hopefully my classroom will have computers for my students to use, a document projector (I have realized how this can help with classroom management by not having your back to the classroom) and ideally some sort of interactive white board.

I do realize that how my classroom looks will vary greatly depending on where I work. As a teacher it will be my responsibility to realize what my classroom needs and work for it. Look for an updated blog in five years with full details!!!
