My worst experience with technology in the classroom happened during my first year of teaching. I planned a nifty lesson on propaganda techniques used in the media. With this lesson there were several clips of political commercials that my students were supposed to view in order to complete the assignment. To make a long story short, the lesson turned out to be a disaster because the volume on the commercials would not play leaving me with no plan B. There is no need to explain what happened next in the class that day. I am sure you can imagine.
