Society has evolved from the industrial age to the information age. The industrial-style classroom is obsolete. Schools must seize the opportunity to integrate technology into the learning environment in effective and powerful ways that support improved student learning.

  • Experience has shown that learning strategies designed for special education students are often of value for students at risk. These include:
      • strategies that relate to the organization of information, and
      • strategies that relate to the oral, reading, writing, and visual aspects of mathematical literacy
  • For example, assistive and adaptive technologies like text-to-voice and voice-to-text software can help students acquire skills and demonstrate learning.
  • In an effective mathematics program, students learn in the presence of technology. Powerful assistive technologies should be used seamlessly in teaching, learning, and assessment
  • Technology can benefit all students by reducing the time spent on routine mathematical tasks and by creating opportunities for thinking and concept development.
