Texting in Educational Settings

 I feel texting can be a great way to communicate with students and teachers alike as well since during the pandemic I had to use text messages to communicate with my teachers which worked very well in my opinion. Also, texting is one of the most used forms of communication in the world as it keeps messages straight to the point while also being able to be sent to a near infinite amount of people if necessary. While some detractors say that use phones to communicate can lead to distractions everything can be under control if proper precautions are made in store! Moderation is key to everything to make everyone work at their best.

I also feel talking with other educators can give a different perspective on how teachers actually teach which is important cause if you are close minded you will never develop.

 Problem solving with technology is great as it is easy to be accessed than other avenues in the past as if are struggling in a class or have an issue with a project in class you can now get help with emailing a teacher or messaging another type of assistance like a virtual tutor of sorts to help with a student struggling in class in some sort of way. Another way students have been assisted with technology in a way that can assist them in classes, but it can also have them become dependent on technology which still needs to be kept in moderation since if you are too reliant on technology there will be issues that you will not have technology to bail you out.
