Technology in the Classroom

From the President's Education Initiative: Enhancing Education Through Technology.
The primary goal of this program is to improve student academic achievement through the use of technology in elementary and secondary schools. The program also seeks to:
(1) ensure that every student is technologically literate by the end of the eighth grade; and
(2) establish research-based instructional methods through the effective integration of technology, professional development for teachers, and curriculum development.
