More Evidence of the Importance of Technology in the Classroom

This is a great article evidencing the importance of technology in educaction. It is careful to point out that it may be possible to fall into the old school use of drill an practice if not used properly. however it mainly points out research that shows computers help students learn.
The article states, " Several organizations like Edutopia, the North Central Educational Lab (NCREL) and the Center for Applied Research in Educational Technology (CARET) are documenting research studies that link technology to increases in academic achievement." It also mentions the importance of educating teachers on the best way to use technnology in the classroom.
I chose this article becasue it is excellent proof that technology is taking over classrooms and as future teachers we need to be educated on it. To view click here.
