Test scores go up, and learning improves by almost any other measure. Technology is needed to ensure a high quality implementation of state standards. Students spend substantially more time on productive learning tasks. Teachers spend less time on administration and more time on student-centered activities. Students get more individual attention.
Teachers spend about twice the time one on one with individual students.
Class sizes are effectively reduced. Teachers become technologically literate, because of comprehensive professional development. We have yet to scale up in education for the day when 10 million students go to the same site at the same time. We can learn from e-business and prepare for success. We can expect to see a new generation of hackers.
