| Thinking Outside the Cardboard Box: Putting Technology to Work in the Classroom By Mary O'Kelly |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| To think outside the box is to leave the comfort level behind and not to be afraid of trying new technologies. It is to provide learners better ways to be prepared for life, as technology is an essential part of today's-and tomorrow's- world, and we as teachers, can not deprive our students from new opportunities, just because it interferes with our comfort level. But it is not only the teachers who need to think outside the box. It is a joint of efforts among schools, districts, and communities working together toward the improvement of student learning and the implementation of technology in its fully potential. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
