Uses of Technology in Career Elementary School Teachers often use Computers, in a computer lab for example, to teach them how to type and to play educational games. Elementary School Teachers often use CD players, for example, to listen to educational music that might teach them how to count or spell. Elementary School Teachers often use television to, for example, show the children educational videos that teach them how to count, spell, or read.
