I think it's important to always keep in mind why we want to add technology to the classroom. Are we substituting something? If so, what will be gain by making the substitution? Is it augmenting reality? What are the additions doing to improve how we already do something? Is the technology modifying our existing methods? How so? Is the tech redefining our classrooms? Each of these questions is one that should be asked each time new tech is being considered for a classroom. Without this rationale, the right tools, and the resources, technology integration will fail.
