Planning for Technology-Enthused Classrooms
Hirsch, Jim
School Administrator, v61 n11 p8 Dec 2004
After 25 years of evolution of technology resources in schools, your leadership team, board of education and local community have finally gotten the message that these tools are here to stay and belong in every classroom for student access. A budget has been appropriated, equipment purchased, professional development completed and new curriculum strategies are in place and you are able to proudly claim your classrooms are "technology infused." As more school districts across the country are finding out, having equipment and software available in classrooms is not enough any longer for our digital-age students. To truly harness their enthusiasm for learning, students must have access at school to those technology resources and methods that they use in their personal lives while away from school. How do we even begin to accomplish such a task? It is simple: Ask the students themselves.
