-becomes a “comfort zone” of students and highly integrated into non-school life in form of gaming, messaging, cell phones and others.
-for non- technology conversant students in their non-school life, the use of technology in school is critical and become a social justice issue.

Unique Instructional Capabilities
Technology helps promote a positive shift toward more project based, hands on learning away from lecture based information manipulation environment provided by one-to-one technology allows teachers to reduce their reliance on lecturingA list by Fred Bartels at

20. TECHNOLOGY IN THE CLASSROOM
PURPOSE ON THE USE OF
TECHNOLOGY IN THE CLASSROOM

21. As Wayne Morren, principal of Florida High School noted recently:\
Teaching and learning in the 21st Century can no longer be a traditional experience of “sit and get.”[5] Teachers as well as students must strive to creatively employ technology tools to access, evaluate, synthesize and communicate information. Only by engaging in this active process can “information” from the Internet be translated into “knowledge” in the minds of learners. Classroom teachers can leverage the potential of disruptive technologies like Skype, weblogs, podcasts, or one to one technology immersion initiatives to increase student motivation to communicate with authentic audiences, spend more time on assigned tasks, and develop essential literacy skills needed for vocational and lifetime success in the twenty-first century. Translated, this means increasing student achievement, while simultaneously encouraging students as well as teachers to engage in worthwhile and creative tasks. Twenty-first century educators should aspire for nothing less.” (
