An Oldie but a Goodie: The 7 Golden Rules of Using Technology in Schools
Back in July, MindShift posted an insightful piece that we think deserves to be revisited.
The post summarizes Adam S. Bellow’s presentation at this year’s 2011 ISTE conference. Bellow, author of The Tech Commandments and eduTecher, spoke to a roomful of educators about the potential of technology in the classroom and proposes some reasons why tech integration in today’s education system has been hindered.

Read the full post here. And as always, MindShift readers have provided thoughtful comments on this one, so don’t forget to check those out, too, and add your own opinions and thoughts.
