Studies and articles about technology and student learning or professional development are ubiquitous in newspapers and magazines.
School districts have technology plans for integrating technology in the instructional program.
Conferences, staff development programs, and professional organizations have focused on helping teachers use technology to enhance teaching and learning in their classrooms. In contrast, principals receive very little support related to technology in education, although they are key players in bringing about change in their schools. By and large, their graduate programs, school districts, professional organizations, journals and conferences have given limited attention to their specific technology needs. There seems to be an assumption that principals will learn about technology through the same sources used by teachers. The principals' role, however, is quite different than that of teachers.
