DESCRIPTION
We have to recognize that over the 150 year ago Horace Mann brought back from Prussia a new educational system. Throughout this history of a Prussian education system the American classrooms have seen very little change from self-contained entities from which they were created.During this time, our society has experienced technological advancements that continues the transition from the Industrial Age, to the Information Age and into the Conceptual Age. Each layer of transformation has set a new stage of thought on how to provide a modernized education for a given society. "How well do you have to understand the technology to use it in your classroom?" To answer the question, it is not about understanding how to use technology, it is about understanding how to access information, and use digital tools to create new forms of connected learning.
