research demonstrated that the
introduction of technology into
classrooms
can significantly
increase the potential for learning
,
especially when it is used to support
collaboration
,
information access
, and
the
expression and representation of
students’
thoughts and ideas
.
Realizing this opportunity for all
students, however, required a broadly
conceived approach to educational
change that integrated new
technologies and curricula with
new
ideas about learning and teaching
, as
well as with
authentic forms of
assessment
.
