6. CurrentTechnologyThis began with advent of thepersonal
computer.
7. The technology will also provide teacherswith an efficient

their lessonin order to appeal to the multi differentlearning
styles of their students. Theoverhead projectors were replaced by
thebelow items LCD projector and Epsoncameras
10. Tetrads, Interviews, andMultimedia PresentationThis section
will review the tetrads of the overheadprojector interviews from
the decision makers,technology users
11. The information is summarized from the interviews
andpresented in paragraph form and narration. The intervieweesdid
not want to be filmed, so I am providing a transcript of
ourconversations. In addition, the link to visual presentation
willbe posted on my blog: Michelles Notes
