This article is explaining how the author believes that the internet is now the most powerful tool in the classroom today. The author argues that teachers must give up some of their power in the classroom and allow students to take more control of their own education through the opportunities the internet offers. She does make the point that teachers will still have a pivotal role in the classroom even with all the new technology.
This article looks at how exemplary science teachers use technology in their classrooms. It also looks at how often they required their students to use technology as part of their assignments. What I like about this article is that it looks at quote unquote, "good teachers," so one can see how a successful teacher uses technology.
