Technology

Technology plays a critical role in today’s schools. They are today’s modern learning tools. But technology is both so prevalent and seemingly new that schools need to be thoughtful about how they introduce, implement, and manage technology.

The temptation is to focus on the “stuff” – the hardware and the software.  But the secret is to focus on the teaching and the learning.  The real power isn’t in learning to use the technology, but in using technology to learn.
