The wave of the future is here especially for education.  Terms like 21st Century Computing, BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), and Cloud Computing, are mainstream.  The introduction of mobile devices, iPods, netbooks, and more specifically the iPad has brought technology to more students then ever before.  A 1 to 1 environment(1 student per 1 technology device) is not only a possibility but a reality in more school districts then people realize.  W/ all that being said I have decided to create a list of my 10 favorite sites for finding educational apps.

Contrary to popular opinion, newer teachers aren’t any more likely to use technology in their lessons than veteran teachers, and a lack of access to technology does not appear to be the main reason why teachers do not use it.

Which comes first? Do teachers use technology frequently because they are trying deliberately to foster 21st-century skills? Or are 21st-century skills necessary conditions, byproducts, or logical outcomes of frequent technology use?”

Another finding that could surprise some people is that a lack of access to technology doesn’t appear to be the main reason why teachers don’t use technology in their instruction.
