A blog post on eduweek caught my eye. It included some commercials that brought a smile to my face, as well as some important points about how much technology has evolved since the 1980s. The author makes an interesting argument about what is going on in schools. I took his commentary to be an argument for moving from a "jewelry store model" (infrequent use requiring a lot of resources) to a "grocery store model" (regular use, part of a culture) in our schools.

Real integration will promote professional dialogue between teachers, as well as expanded use of technology for students in their classrooms.
