Technology is a great resource in the classroom that can enhance teachers teaching and learners learning if it is integrated properly. I don't believe technology can replace a teacher, but I do feel it can better and strengthen the educator. The web provides teachers with countless approaches to learning for all types of students. It opens more opportunities for the children to grow.
"The National Educational Technology Plan" entitled Transforming Education: Learning Powered by Technology. The plan lays out an ambitious agenda for transforming teaching and learning through technology.
Much of the NETP emphasizes "21st Century learning" as the path to transforming education: "engaging and empowering learning experiences for all learners... and leveraging the power of technology to provide personalized learning instead of a one-size-fits all curriculum." The plan seeks to challenge the traditional model of the isolated teacher in a classroom, promoting the idea of "always on" learning resources and online communities for both educators and students."
Technology is a HUGE step forward.
