Marc Prensky (http://www.marcprensky.com/default.asp): Mr. Presnky is the author of many articles discussing how to educate today's students and how to deal with issues of technology within education and he posts pdf versions of his articles on his website. One of the most interesting/surprising statements he made was that it is okay that teachers resist being taught about technology. He feels teachers should not be the technology expert; they should be the //teaching// expert and guide students as they use technology to teach themselves (The Role of Technology in Teaching and the Classroom). This is certainly a shift of approach; the teacher would have to take the role of supportive guide as opposed to the all-knowing one who leads the class and develops guided learning experiences that use technology.

BECTA (http://partners.becta.org.uk/) - The British Educational Communications and Technology Agency: This group has developed many resources regarding technology integration into education. They have an annual report titled //Emerging Technologies for Education// that is very interesting to review. Their site can be a bit tough to navigate so I have posted copies of a few of their resources below: 1. Emerging Technologies for Education 2008 2. Emerging Technologies for Education 2007 3. The 21st Century Teacher 4. Inspiring Learners
