They also allow a teacher to immediately intervene, to change course when assessments show that a particular lesson or strategy isn't working for a student, or to offer new challenges for students who've mastered a concept or skill.

      And shouldn't that be what is in the forefront of people's minds while they are limiting the money put into educaiton? How can we teach students "21st Century Skills," if we don't have the technology to teach, show, and do. You can't get the skills without having the tools.
