The document discusses different levels of integrating technology into curriculum. It identifies 5 levels - from entry level where teachers begin using tech tools to deliver content, to adaptation where students explore tools independently, to infusion where students choose tools to achieve outcomes, and finally transformation where innovative tech tools facilitate higher-order learning and activities not otherwise possible. Curriculum-level integration is identified as most powerful, involving choosing tools, platforms and policies based on standards, assessment and instruction, with benefits like teacher collaboration.

2.  The integration of technology in learning is not
new. In the 1980s, many schools had fancy
calculators, Macintosh computers, and were even
teaching students basic coding.
 This kind of integration often happened at the
lesson or activity level, meaning that it was often
surface-level, tacked-on, and perhaps a bit
superficial.

3.  The power of technology is difficult to fully
leverage without curriculum-level integration. This
means choosing tools, platforms, and policies
based on standards, assessment, and instruction.
A side benefit to this approach is the possibility of
teacher collaboration and “same-pageness.”
