This document discusses the importance of technology integration in elementary school classrooms. It defines technology integration as using technology tools to introduce, reinforce, and assess curriculum objectives across all subject areas. Technology motivates students and allows them to access vast amounts of knowledge. Integrating technology benefits different learning styles and allows more students to succeed. A shift is needed for educators to understand that technology integration changes how they teach, present material, and assess students. This better prepares students for the future and also benefits teachers through easier collaboration and new teaching opportunities.
