Answer to Question 2

ANSWER:
Evaluating educational technology before instruction begins, during the instructional period, and after instruction has taken place is important. Before using software, apps, or Web sites, teachers should determine if this technology meets their curriculum needs and if the product or content is developmentally and age appropriate for their classroom learning situation. Information from many sources helps teachers evaluate the appropriateness of educational technologies. Teachers should continue to evaluate the technology while it is being used, as well as after the instruction using the technology is complete.
