I have a kindergarten class with 30 students. They are low-socioeconomic but very driven. Their interest in learning encourages me to find new ways of teaching using technology, because they will have to be effective computer users to succeed in their lives, and their social status may not offer much access to it.
They are very visual, so if they see it they understand it. Now we have so many educational web sites and apps that provide visuals, and are engaging for students, that is easier than finding pictures on a book, or making copies for 30 students.
The 21st century has brought us a new way of delivering information, computers. It should be available to teachers that are delivering that information every day.
