  13. National Plan… • “The role technology plays in the nation’s classrooms varies dramatically depending on the funding priorities of states, districts, and schools and individual educators’ understanding of how to leverage it in learning in meaningful ways” (U.S. Department of Education, 2010).

  14. Thought In Closing • “To prepare students to learn throughout their lives and in settings, we must change what and how we teach to match what people need to know, how they learn, and where and when they learn and change our perception of who needs to learn. We must bring 21st century technology into learning into meaningful ways to engage, motivate, and inspire learners of all ages to achieve” (USDE, 2010).
