    Would you believe there is really no research that shows technology enhances
learning.  I am a GTA For DR. Dusti Howell in the Instructional Design and
Technology  at Emporia State University.  He has been trying to collect research on
this subject and has found nothing.  Nightline did a show about this subject back
in Nov. or Dec.   It had the same conclusion .  There is no real evidence that
Technology make a difference in learning.
    Everybody say Technology is vital , ( and I tend to agree) but there is no real
research that proves the point.   Spooky isn't it.
    If anybody has this type of research  I'm sure Dr. Howell would love the
citation.

Subject: Success for All: Media Specialist's role??

Good morning,
  If you have experience working with the Success for All program,
please tell me about the media specialist's role at your school and your
view of the program.
  We are getting ready to take our final vote to implement or not
implement the program and I am searching for pertinent information to
share with my colleagues.  We have visited various schools to see the
program in action.

Thanks for any information,

Carolyn H. Cothran Media Specialist Southside Elem. School Blairs, VA
