The touching of lives though teaching can be enhanced though the use of technology in teaching. The use of technology can help your students with different learning styles, become better prepared for the technologically advanced world in which they live, and create more in depth presentations.
Try starting younger students with easy programs/assignments like computer learning games and having older students do PowerPoints, etc.
There are some links in the side box that are useful tips for classroom management, which is particularly important when dealing with expensive technology in the classroom.
Your concept was very helpful. I liked how you tapped into another side of teaching that many don't think of when they think about technology.
