Teacher and Teacher Effectiveness

Between Technology and Teacher Effectiveness: Professional Development from TechLearning.com Quote: "As teachers develop their core technology skills, they need on-going support through a professional development environment that is consistently interwoven with hands-on use of technology to reinforce their efforts and learning." Elearnspace Comment: The conversation on using and implementing technology is still happening several levels higher than the teacher level. In order for technology to be seemlessly integrated with instruction and learning, the discussion needs to be brought down to the "classroom" level, and the voices of teachers and learners need to be heard and listened to. Success at this level will occur when simple, social tools are placed into the hands of the teachers/learners. Teachers shouldn't have to become technologists to be online teachers.
