  classrooms

• Technology should be used as a supplement and not
  as a replacement of instruction by the teacher

Leave No Teachers Behind

• The new national education act (Leave No Child
  Behind) focusing on not leaving any children
  behind needs to be expandeddont leave the
  teachers behind either. This means real
  technology literacy for teachers. The more they
  understand the use of technology as a vehicle of
  instruction, the more they will be speaking the
  same language that our digital kids speak.
