Student+need

The point he made about getting the technology into student's hands really made sense to me. It is important for teachers to use technology to become more efficient and to stream line our daily activities - but it should be even more important that we are giving our student's the practical application of technology skills that will make their learning more meaningful. This would be a difficult idea for administrators to "sell" their teachers on. A lot of people in my building have major issues with putting expensive pieces of technology in the hands of children. But, to equip them for the 21st century, they have to have useful technology knowledge.
