Email in the classroom

Email has become a major part of our society. It is also a crucial part of the classroom. It allows students to bring work from home into the classroom by emailing the project to themselves. Email helped me a lot as a student because when my printer would break or I needed to work on something in class I would email it to myself. It is easy way for parents and teachers to communicate. It also allows students to ask questions about homework while they are doing it if the teacher frequently checks their email. Teachers can also create an Instant Messenger screen name in order to communicate with students outside of the classroom if they have homework questions. Overall, email can be a crucial part of the classroom and I plan to use it in many ways in my class.
