The US Department of Education has published a technology plan worth taking a look at. The plan, which is titled "Transforming American Education: Learning Powered by Technology" identifies 5 major components students will need to succeed in the 21st century. These include:
Learning - A process to meet the needs and interests of students.
Assessment - A process to monitor student achievements, ensuring they are meeting important benchmarks.
Teaching - A process to get teachers the tools
Infrastructure - A process to get schools connected to technology, everywhere.
Productivity - A process to use technology to accelerate student achievement.
