Subject: An "Easy" Answer...

Hello All,

It seems the "easy" answer is to do both. That's an "easy" answer to type out...but in reality...?

If... we had all classrooms networked, high speed access at school and at home, state of the art regularly scheduled professional development, technical support, instructional media specialists trained in both instructional strategies and multimedia/communications technologies, and so on...

If...we could have our text book publishers aligned with our "technology" publishers ...

Then all we would need is a little money to make this happen.

Where's the money?
We could take "all" that Social Security money and leverage our future by investing it all in our schools...

I'm concerned about doing technology with limited funds.

An "easy" answer, but not one that is easily implemented.
