I think there are two important elements in our discussions. The first is
preparing teachers to use the new technology so that it will be useful in
the classroom and used in the classroom.  I was at a seminar on technology
thinking that everyone should be getting to use this new approach.  Howeever
the leader of the the group made it clear that it the teacher who must teach
the subject. Let  them determine what is needed in the classroom.  He said
not everyone needs to use the computer. Find out from each teacher what
technology is needed and wnated in their class. And then help them get it.
The other element that has been talked about a little is the  the neeed to
have money available  to help keep school up to date. It's important that we
don't get money to just set up the technology programs in schools.  With the
changes that happen so quickly today we as schools need the funds to be able
to upgrade as needed Withiout this aspect included money spent today ccould
prove to be useless tomorrow.
