How can I overcome the fear of using technology in the classroom?
🚀 Feeling nervous about using edtech? You’re not alone! The fear of “messing up” is common—but here’s the good news: you don’t need to be a tech genius to get started.
🛠️ Here are some quick wins to build your confidence:
Start simple: Try one tool at a time, like Google Slides for presentations.
Practice in advance: Explore new tools in your own time before using them with students.
Involve your students: They often LOVE to help with tech. Turn it into a learning moment!
Join a community: Follow edtech educators or join Facebook groups to learn from others.
Celebrate progress: Every small step forward is a win.
🎉 Remember, no one gets it perfect the first time—and that’s OK. You’re modelling lifelong learning for your students.
