Problem

Our students are facing a world in which careers will be integrated with technology at almost every skill level. A major challenge for educators is to integrate the use of technology in the classroom. Today and in the future many new careers will be created to meet the needs of our technologically advancing society. As educators we need to prepare all students for a society that is technologically advancing exponentially. This means that all students should have their lessons integrated with technology. Students need to be able to use email to communicate with their teachers for various reasons such as sending a paper to a teacher, or to have the skills to create a web-based project to show understanding of a concept. More familiarity with these programs will create a sense of confidence in the students to explore new programs as they are developed.
