  • Findings from the First Student Cohort found that technology didn't significantly influence student performance.
  • Despite the lack of data showing that technology has a tremendous effect in the classroom, teachers have found that using technology may help address students' specific learning needs.

    From team A's diigo not quite sure if it in fact hurts their case rather than help it. The article discusses how because... wait for it.... "Despite the lack of data showing that technology has tremendous effect in the classroom..." it's a great tool. Not exactly a ringing endorsement of the point I think team A is trying to make. Really good article and I believe a lot of whats in it but the credibility of the article is lacking.
