Before jumping into the biggest step, which is integrating technology into education, we must learn all about computers. First of all, we should study the parts of the computer, such as the monitor, keyboard, mouse, computer data storage, the hard disk drive, and system unit (memory, motherboard and chips), all of these parts are touchable. However, the software is a set of instructions that directs the computer to run specific operations.
Once we learn the essential and important information about computers, we can now talk about communication. Communication is the process of sharing data programs, and information between two or more computers. Communication is accomplished by a network which is a group of connected computers. In order to perform any kind of communication, we must have connection devices such as modems. We also need connection services (ADSL, 3G, 4G). ADSL allows users to access the internet through your home fixed lines and provides fast internet connections.
We must master our computer skills before asking our students to do a research over the internet.

This is true. However, today's generation knows so much about technology; even a preschool child can use phones, tablets, and laptops in a professional way. Teaching how things can help us learn and can lead us to knowledge is more important than teaching what is something made up of sometimes. I don't know why this reminded me of people who take a driver's license test, and then they are asked about what the parts of the engine are! It's good to have knowledge, but this is not the main thing in this case.
Our children today know much about computers, it's something that they master very well.All what we have to do is put any electronic piece and they can prform things in an amazing way and short time.
Many teachers try to integrate technology into their classroom without having the knowledge about the basic things like how to connect a laptop to an LCD... Moreover, if a teacher wants to use technology in the classroom, he/she needs to be familiar with the programs that he/she intends to use. Technology is part of our lives, we need to learn how to use it to benefit us to the fullest. So, why not show our students how to do so?
