Editor's Notes
NCLB was introduced in 2001 to ensure that all students have an opportunity to be successful in school. In this presentation, I am going to show you research that proves technology is no longer a “neat” or “cool” tool for schools to use, but it is now a vital asset that our schools must have to ensure that our students are not left behind.
