Fearless Teachers

Teachers see the use of technology first hand with its students. I talked to Coach Mac, one of the baseball coaches.Coach Mac graduated with a bachelors degree from Oklahoma Baptist University and also has a Masters degree. Coach Mac is one of the most insightful people I have ever met. I asked him what he thinks about technology in the role of college students? He thinks the role college students should play when it comes to technology is use technology to benefit your self academically first. Make sure that your grades and classes are taking care of, once it is all straight then you can use the Internet for personal use, like facebook and YouTube. When regarding the problems he faces with students and the use of technology he states that students use technology for the wrong reasons and procrastinate a lot due to all the different forms of technology. Mac thinks that technology used the wrong way can really hurt a student and the skills that come along without technology. These skills are focusing on one thing at a time, face to face communication, professionalism. I asked him what he thinks about students not using phones and deleting their social networks? he said students should have their phones to talk to people and family members but when it comes to social media he said delete it unless its absolutely necessary I would like to Thank Mac for his time, and for his honest answers.
