Technology in the classroom

(Title is link to AOL news article Schwarzenegger seeks online revolution)

As far as I know, most schools try to teach children how to use technology in the classroom but a lot of resources are still published on paper. Digitizing resources are cheaper, easier to access, greener and they have more interconnectivity to related resources (links to related content). I believe that a greater emphasis on online or digital content will improve learning in the long run. Although there are still many logistical problems in terms of implementing a shift from textbooks to digital content, it is the direction that we should be moving towards if we want to maximize educational effectiveness.
