Now, Christian schools have access to the Gutenberg collection of classic books - all online. The entire collection of Shakespeare - all online. Access to information used to be the barrier for Christian schools. The real challenge today is teaching students how to process multiple sources of information. The Internet is prompting a radical shift in the way that students will gather their information and learn about their world.
Information is an educational tool and it is very important to know how to use tools.
The fundamental Truths of the gospel will never change for Christian schools. Progress and time, however, continually change what is considered important knowledge. The need to learn and the tools we use to learn are relatively constant. The Internet will NOT replace the classroom teacher or all traditional textbooks. Technology will never replace teachers, but teachers who use technology in effective ways will replace those who don't.
