To adequately prepare students for the future, educators say, they must be able to use 21st-century methods of teaching in the classrooms of the 21st century. If technology isn't available, students will have no chance of competing in the job market that they will enter -- a market in which a huge number of the jobs will require the use of technology.

"Children who don't do anything in class will work if it's on the computer," Darla Waldrop, a junior-high computer lab coordinator in Louisiana, told Education World. "It takes that 'I'm not working for an authority figure' element out of it. They're working at their own pace, and they love the multimedia effect."

A study conducted at Stephens Institute of Technology found that high-school students retained math skills longer after using commercially available mathematics software than did students in a control group receiving traditional classroom instruction. (Technology and Learning, September 1997)

Add Sticky NoteEducational Testing Service study discovered that math teachers who used computers could significantly boost fourth and eighth graders' standardized math scores, and a study of 53 elementary, middle, and high schools found that providing cutting-edge technology improves teachers' morale

isn't this a problem? why are computers creating a "boost" in test scores & not because of the teachers helping them?

The cost of including technology in our school curriculum is high. There is no doubt there. Many people wonder, however, what the long-term cost of not including technology in the curriculum might be. Technology exposes students to experiences not available to them before.

Does this current emphasis on technology really make a difference in how much and how quickly students learn? A good deal of recent research suggests that it does! A study commissioned by the Milken Exchange on Education Technology and recently released by Columbia University discovered that West Virginia's use of educational technology led directly to significant gains in K-6 students' reading, math, and language skills.

School officials in West Virginia selected software carefully and then integrated it into the curriculum. They provided students an adequate number of computers, and they thoroughly trained teachers in how to use the software to improve student learning. As a result, student scores on both state tests and the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) improved. Intriguingly, the study also found that West Virginia's program was more cost-effective than hiring more teachers or reducing class sizes!
