In this chapter I read about integrating technology and creating challenges as a teacher in the classroom. There are different strategies and issues to that teacher are having with integrating technology in their classroom. It requires having patience, perseverance, and the willingness to involve the classroom with this new technology.
In schools technology tend to follow to patterns called inclusion or infusion. Inclusion is when technology is being used mainly to for transferring information and practice skills in the class. This is only used like 30 minute each week within a group assignment. The everyday teaching is just done by the teacher herself. Infusion is when computers and technologies are ongoing features in academic learning. They are used day to day with each student interacting with the teacher lessons. Examples used to teach kids with technology will be videos, puzzles, game based learning.

There is a difference in the classroom when the teacher is using the infusion way because students can relate to it and makes it even fun for them to learn. But yes you do need to have lots of patience with technology in the classroom especially if your not use to working with it. Always have a positive attitude in the classroom even if you are struggling with it.
