The U.S. National Educational Technology Plan was recently updated. The plan outlines an agenda for progressing towards an eco-system of devices and systems that integrate pedagogy & technology in K-12 schools. The Plan puts forth five goals focused on learning powered by technology: Learning, Assessment, Teaching, Infrastructure, and Productivity. The Obama Administration and Secretary Duncan have charted an ambitious vision put together by experts including my old boss, Dr. Chris Dede at Harvard University.
If you are interested in improving learning through technology, then you should read the Executive Summary of this report. It will give you a top level view of the various complexities associated with integrating technology into the classroom at scale.
If you have read this report, do you agree with it?
What are the challenges associated with implementing the ideas stated in the report?
