Best Hopes We will find that our technology enriched schools create an exciting, interactive learning environment for students, staff, and the community. Technology is effectively used to improve students' performance. Technology is used to broaden the focus of study, enabling students to view their studies from a global perspective. Students, teachers, and parents use technology to communicate on a regular basis. After all the time spent in planning, after all the money we pour into hardware, software and infrastructure, the results could be disappointing.
Students see technology as a toy rather than as a tool.
Teachers do not model excitement in using technology because they feel inadequately prepared or trained. The possibilities for effective communication are unrealized. Technology is ignored or its use is not purposeful.
