The essential ingredient in implementing a new era of learning is developing an open mind-set amongst teachers. Technology is expanding, and as daunting as it can be for the technological illiterate amongst us, what needs to be reiterated and reinforced, especially with teachers, is that this technology is there to help us. Everyday programs are emerging that are creating more exciting and interesting ways of engaging students of all ages in the classroom and they will continue to be created.

Research is a key aspect to seeing the possibilities out there within technology. To create the classroom, where children are given every possibility to reach their highest potential, we as teachers need to be aware of all that is available to us. It is essential that teachers don’t see emerging technologies as a threat, but rather as a necessity for great education.
