“I think we need to be careful not to be too specific (i.e.
technology = computer) and at the same time not to be so broad
that our definition of technology includes everything from
pencil and paper to lasers and computers. I’d like to see us
define technology in a manner that looks at electronic tools we
use to enhance teaching and learning” Sally, grade teacher from
Joy Egbert (2009)
