For this week’s blog we decided to do an individual reflection on if we will include these technology shortcuts into our future classrooms. From the research we have done on the pros and cons of these shortcuts, there is a lot to consider before including them in a classroom. I believe the most important factor to consider before deciding would be the age of your students. I personally want to teach kindergarten to grade 2; therefore, I would not include these shortcuts into my classroom because this is the stage where they need to learn the basic literacy skills. Including these shortcuts could have a large negative effect on their learning process. On the other hand, if I was teaching in an older classroom like grade 6, I would most likely include these shortcuts with limits to enhance the students literacy skills as these students already have literacy skills.
