      Answer Example

      "I don't outright replace any activities. The kids still need to learn penmanship. And they still need to know how to look up a word in a traditional dictionary. We can't let autocorrect and Google do all the thinking for them. I use technology to enhance my lessons.
      For example, I use educational apps on the iPad so that the students can interact with lessons. This makes it more engaging, and they learn better this way. Technology also provides great visuals that benefit my visual and auditory learners."
