The article wouldn't allow me to read all five pages, but I will blog about what I read from the first page. The article talks about how without the adaption of lesson plans, incorporating technology is useless. You can't take a plan that you made for class without laptops and then use it for a class with laptops without adjusting it. This is just lazy teaching. A good teacher can be able to reinvent their lessons to stay modern with the technology and to adapt to their student's needs. Classes wanting to involve a one-to-one program require a teacher that is willing to put in the extra time and effort that it is going to take to remodel their curriculum. For my class I really want to use laptops, I think there are a lot of great resources available.
