Technology Advances- Vicki Davis

 an early version of our first car
Vicki Davis' ability to teach and learn is a great example of how teachers should teach. Her class seems diverse in her efforts to give students numerous ways to learn and experience new things while doing it in the comfort of classrooms. I think it is a great way to expand education while also preserving the future by being on the cutting edge of technology. Teachers like Vicki Davis are of extreme importance to our continued development of our education system. She has taken what students today are really interested in, and converted it into a worldwide classroom. Just 10 years ago, such ways of teaching were obsolete or very few. I think that in a few short years, a majority of classrooms will be moving towards this format.

One of the strengths that I noticed in the clip is that Vicki Davis empowers her students to learn. She does this by allowing them to share information, worldwide, while teaching even her some important lessons along the way. By doing this, it seems her student have a tremendous amount of gratitude and fondness for her and her class. They are really engaged and very interested in the learning process, which in most cases, goes against the norm in our current education system. From what I gathered, if we empower students, it makes for a productive foundation on which to teach.
