Abstract

This chapter examines the every-changing opportunities teachers have to incorporate innovative learning approaches with technology. Technology is revolutionizing instructional delivery all along the educational continuum, pre-K through life-long learning. Students are technology savvy from their experiences with cell phones, video games, DVD players, MP3 music devices, and computers with constant Internet connectivity. Solution partners, distance education delivery, new and innovative equipment for e-learning, wireless connectivity, innovative information storage, technology-driven classroom interaction, specialized software tools, and websites for enhancing education have enabled teachers to expand their repertoire to provide more hands-on activities actively engaging students in the learning process. Continuing educational technology issues and concerns indicate that in spite of controversy and differing opinions, the technology revolution in classrooms will continue unabated.
