From the Paper:
"OVERVIEW: The remarkable technology advances in America's classrooms over the past ten or fifteen years have changed the way teachers teach and the way students learn. Not every classroom is up to date with high-end digital technology; but many, if not most, teachers have access to the Internet, and other helpful interactive technology tools. Students no longer create essays on typewriters, but instead Apple and Dell and other companies make computers available to schools at low prices. Writers Agapova and Ushakov, in their article, contrast the traditional with the innovative way (through ChemQuest) of teaching in high school chemistry classes. It proved successful. Teacher Mary Rooney in Philadelphia was able to pinpoint exactly where students were falling behind through the use of ISM technology, in Justine Brown's article. And as Devon Duhaney points out in his article, even though some teachers have a fear of new technologies, in a well-planned program by a knowledgeable teacher, there is the opportunity for wonderful interaction between students and teachers utilizing these marvelous technologies. The three articles bring out the point that when teachers have the training they need to implement the technologies fully and fairly, students are more than ready to learn in new and exciting ways. In fact, if teachers and schools do not provide the opportunity for students to learn with up-to-date technologies, students will be bored in a hurry and the learning will be limited."Sample of Sources Used:
