RESOURCES

There are many different methods to teaching various subjects, but it is all up to the teacher as to how he/she wants to teach them. One thing that should be incorporated into almost every lesson taught is that of a resource. A resource can either be supplemental material or used as a key part to the lesson. It can also be anything else such as a book, article, online video, or even games. In modern classrooms, technology has become a big part of the classroom. This is why it is important to incorporate technology into the classroom as a resource; it also enables us to use resources only found when looking through cyberspace.
