7. Educational Technology in the 21stcentury

8. Teachers in this new environment will become less as instructors and more as orchestrators of information, giving the students the ability to turn knowledge into wisdom.

9. Teachers and administrators need to cultivate and maintain the student’s interest in the material by showing how this knowledge applies in the real world.
