  • First, technology is changing the way students interact with information. It has revolutionized the way we obtain, gather, evaluate, and search for information, and schools that have not adapted to these changes find themselves disconnected from their students.
  • Secondly, many technology initiatives are specifically designed to increase a student’s access to technology. Therefore, a school district can achieve its goal without actually improving student learning. The problem is that access to technology should not be the goal; improving teaching and learning should be.

  • There was a time when information was only accessible at school from teachers, libraries, and textbooks. If a student didn’t learn the information before they left school, they had very limited access to these information resources. Yet now, the Internet has changed the rules: Information is available at any time to anyone with access.
  • School leaders need to decide what should be the focus of instruction: information retention, or information consumption.
  • Districts need to realize that one size does not fit all, and placing the same technology in each classroom in the name of equity is a recipe for disaster.
