Re: MIDDLE:Integrating Technology

[sandes <sandes@WILKEN-DSM.COM>]

We found that once we introduced the teachers to basic computer operations,
then word processing, then webpaging, the question is not "how to get them
to integrate" but to make the decisions on what to integrate.

I think that many teachers still are afraid of computers or at least not
know that technology's potential as a learning tool.

Technology as such is only one method, albeit a fun one, of many and
teachers must be aware of the appropriateness of the methods they use.
