EdTech Journey Reflection - Alexis Young

Slide: 1
Before this class, I honestly didn’t think much about educational technology. I just thought of it as laptops, smart boards, and maybe some apps teachers used to make class a little easier. I didn’t really see it as anything deeper than that. It was just kind of “there.”

After taking this class, I realized there’s a lot more to edtech than I expected. It’s not just about using tools—it’s about how and why we use them. I started to understand that teachers have to think about things like accessibility, digital literacy, and whether a tool actually helps students learn. I also didn’t really think about issues like the digital divide or privacy before, and now those things stick out to me.
Slide: 3
When I think about my future with edtech, I picture myself being more intentional with it. I want to use tools because they actually help, not just because they’re new or popular. I also know tech changes really fast, so I expect to keep learning and adjusting as things evolve. And I want to make sure whatever technology I use doesn’t leave anyone out.
