DIGITAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS: Tools and Technologies for Effective Classrooms
"There is one in every school. There is one in every district. There is that one teacher, no matter what you do, no matter how much time you take, how slow you go, how much one-on-one time you spend with them, there is that one teacher who is not going to integrate technology into their classroom. They dig in their heals. They bury their heads in the sand. They shut the doors to their classroom, leaving technology (and perhaps ultimately quality learning) out in the cold."
Teachers using Twitter, social media sites to engage students
"Teachers are getting lesson plan ideas from far-flung colleagues via Twitter. Skype conversations are being hosted in classrooms. And students are being introduced to social media and being schooled on how it can benefit them professionally."
