LB #12 The Power of Films, Video and TV in the Classroom

Watching television or film is already a part of our lives nowadays. It seems that we cannot live without them. Some might say, especially the old ones, that it is disadvantageous to have this kind of technology in our time today, but, little do they know that it can also be used in a positive way that will produce positive outcomes. For instance, when viewing videos to the students to clarify the things that they don't understand in class. It can also be used as a motivational tool for the students to participate more in class. It is very useful in supplementing the students' learning and gives them better ideas by way of seeing educational videos in the classroom. One more benefit of having this in the class is that the students tend not to talk with there classmates because they will be entertained by the videos being presented. 
   As a future educator, I am in favor of having these technologies in the classroom..
