This may be the cheesiest teaching philosophy ever, but as a teacher you can never stop believing. You can't stop believing in your students, yourself, or that what you are doing matters. I think that you have to constantly believe that education is the key that unlocks student potential. Integrating technology in the classroom can be difficult, especially for people who may not feel comfortable with it. You just have to believe that you can do it. Learning about different types of technology and making informed decisions about why you are using, therefore using it for a purpose not 'just because' is key in being an effective teacher using technology.
