"Technology ushers in
fundamental structural changes that can be integral to achieving
significant improvements in productivity. Used to support both
teaching and learning, technology infuses classrooms with digital
learning tools, such as computers and hand held devices; expands
course offerings, experiences, and learning materials; supports
learning 24 hours a day, 7 days a week; builds 21st century skills;
increases student engagement and motivation; and accelerates learning.
Technology also has the power to transform teaching by ushering in a
new model of connected teaching. This model links teachers to their
students and to professional content, resources, and systems to help
them improve their own instruction and personalize learning." U.S. Department of Education
