    The role that education plays in issues of social equity and justice cannot be undervalued. It is acknowledged by the United Nations as a human right, 'Everyone has the right to education' (United Nations, 1948) and as outlined in the Melbourne Declaration on the Educational Goals for Young Australians 'As a nation Australia values the central role of education in building a democratic, equitable and just society- a society that is prosperous, cohesive and culturally diverse, and that values Australia's Indigenous cultures as a key part of the nation's history, present and future.' (Barr et al, 2008). Such lofty assertions of the importance of education as a right and national value should be sufficient to ensure that all Australians have access to an education of the highest standard with equitable outcomes for all, the reality is that this is not the case.

  • weak arguments, such as “students are digital natives, so we should use more technology,”
  • Digital technology provides a powerful toolkit, offering unique advantages (such as bridging time and distance, democratizing access to information and services, and leveraging exponential increases in computer power) that have helped transform other organizations, especially those based on information and knowledge

  • Making schools more engaging and relevant (thereby helping reduce the disastrous high school dropout rates in many districts); • Providing high-quality schooling for all students (including English-language learners and students with disabilities); • Attracting, preparing, and retaining high-quality teachers; • Increasing support for children from parents and the community; and • Requiring accountability for results (including providing more information about schools to policymakers and the public). Educators need to consider how digital tools are used to help achieve each of these goals, because transforming schools requires attention to all six, not only one.
  • Because these changes happened so quickly, it is a challenge to think clearly about schools’ uses of digital tools.
  • By using computers, the Internet, and other digital technologies in smart ways, schools are beginning to be transformed into the more modern, effective, responsive institutions that society needs.
  • these modifications are not yet widely known or understood.
