A Hierarchy of Technology Needs
On one site out there on the webs there is a combination of technology and the hierarchy of needs done by Maslow. Most teachers are familiar with Maslow, but most have not seen the technology hierarchy of needs. First, there needs to be an established infrastructure. Then you need to have an effective administration. Next, you need extensive resources. On the next tier, You can implement an enhanced teaching program. Lastly, you can then empower you students. What this shows me is that there is a lot of work that goes into having the technology in the first place. It may be hard to get it in place, but I think that it has a much greater positive effect in the long run. Schools need this to help them keep in mind the amount of work that is ahead of them and also to keep in mind what teachers and students need before technology can start having a positive effect.

Erin you need to tell us the site with a web address. "On one site on the webs.." is pretty general and vague. Your reviews are tending toward being a little too brief, also, I fear.
