According to Wikipedia, "collocation is defined as a sequence of words or terms which co-occur more often than would be expected by chance."

But planning for the lifespan of the hardware is one thing, where it fits in with your school's vision is another. Sometimes schools can get a bit fixated with provision. We like to reel off a list of the various and wondrous hardware that adorns every nook and cranny of the school building. But it is not simply about provision. I have often heard that "an interactive whiteboard does not make a poor teacher any better". well in the same vein, "technology provision alone does not make independent, confident learners."

The task of any organizer is to enable a group and the individuals in it to function effectively together for the achievement of a common purpose. This is precisely your proper role as a teacher.
