Remotes

Does school ever get boring or uninteresting from looking inside a text book and doing worksheets? Many schools and teachers believe that using technology and interesting courses can improve test scores and concentration for students. Major Owens, former congressman, said, “Children are already accustomed to a world that moves faster and is more exciting than anything a teacher in front of a classroom can do." If I could create a new form of technology to make the classroom a better place, it would be a remote that controls the school for you in your hands.

My technology would be a handheld remote that controls the school. It would look like a Logitech Harmony 1100 Universal Remote. But instead of controlling just TVs you could control doors, bathroom, lights, music, and many other things. This would be a very good idea.

This could be used in the classroom to Google things, help with math, and be an interactive device for games. Not only would it Google but the Internet would be able to be used and accessed for school things. To help with math you could use like a calculator or website or notepad to help for workspace and to practice. Then you could play games relating to the course and subject. These are some ways to benefit the classroom.

This would help teachers and students by not using paper or pencils/pens. You could save money on school supplies and items. And teachers could grade from them and not have to worry about anything breaking.

In conclusion, remote controlled device would be an innovative way to change classes. It will help by making things faster and saving money. Education needs technology because many students are used to having things instantly and are not as concentrated anymore and would be more interested in technology then writing out of a textbook.
