Using Technology in the Classroom:
The Road towards a Successful Learning Environment

A report by Michelle Freddolino, Sandy Lawton, Mery Molenaar, and Karen Rosen, educational web consultants

Conclusion

The proposed website is designed to represent all issues that are of concern to the committee at large. Therefore, we do not intend to ignore presently known beliefs, attitudes, and values. By addressing these in a forthright manner, we establish a strong sense of credibility.

The empirical evidence provided addresses the proven benefits already experienced by many schools. Therefore, we are appealing to the committee members by clearly showing the benefits provided by implementing technology in a deliberate, well thought-out manner.

Furthermore, the macrocontext designed within the site is intended to provide a positive, personal experience for the committee members. Thus allowing them to personalize their experience and visualize how learning can be successfully implemented throughout the state.

Finally, we emphasize that state government, school districts, and teachers must work in a coordinated fashion to encourage collaboration between schools, disciplines, teachers, and tech support persons who support technology in classrooms and help make this project a success story for all students, teachers, and schools.
