✤ Technology can't think like a teacher!Technology can cast a broad net to filter content, lewd images, and text, it takes a person to make good decisions on content.!Technology can make the teaching & learning easier, but it can't tell you which learning material to deliver, when to teach, and for whom/target students.!Technology can’t identify potential of students
