Guiding Principles in Proposal Development Previous technologies have failed to live up to their potential in the science classroom (http://www.macworld.com/article/153672/ 2010/08/1). Previous technologies have failed to live up to their potential in the science classroom (http://www.macworld.com/article/153672/ 2010/08/1).http://www.macworld.com/article/153672/ 2010/08/1http://www.macworld.com/article/153672/ 2010/08/1 No technology can replace or compensate for ineffective teaching. No technology can replace or compensate for ineffective teaching. Technology should streamline or increase the efficiency of the process for which it was designed.
