Technology works - it's about the how not the what.

Technology works in education.

We are still, of course, trying to figure out how. This section is dedicated to providing frameworks, ideas, strategies, and success stories to use technology to strengthen, deepen, and broaden our learning.

This is a small article I've written summarizing my view about educational technology. I encourage you to check it out and comment as you see fit.
