A classroom that has successfully integrated technology into the curriculum
would be one where you would not really notice it because it would be so second
nature. The teacher would not have to think up ways to use whatever tools
were available, but would seamlessly use them to enhance the learning of whatever
content was being covered. Technology [would be] used to assist in acquiring
content knowledge, and the acquisition of technology skills [would be] secondary.
Contrast this depiction with what the International Society for Technology
in Education’s (ISTE) National Educational Technology Standards for Students
(NETS-S; ISTE, 2002) say about technology integration:
curriculum integration with the use of technology involves the infusion of
technology as a tool to enhance the learning in a content area or multidisciplinary
setting….Effective integration of technology is achieved when students
are able to select technology tools to help them obtain information in a timely
manner, analyze and synthesize the information, and present it professionally.
The technology should become an integral part of how the classroom functions—as
accessible as all other classroom tools.
