Subject: A Retrospective on Twenty Years of Education Technology Policy
 
A new report from the Center for Children and Technology (CCT) finds a
striking consensus in past recommendations for the effective integration of
technology in schools and offers advice about recommendations for the next
20 years. "A Retrospective on Twenty Years of Education Technology Policy"
synthesizes the findings of more than 25 major studies and policy papers,
beginning with "A Nation at Risk" in 1983. In examining past research and
policy work on technology's role in education, CCT researchers identified a
conceptual framework that offers substantial guidance for striking a
balance between the demands of improving practice over time and pressing
public concerns such as accountability and equity. According to the report, the
focus of educational technologists and researchers has shifted away from an
emphasis on "single input" strategies, such as the wiring of schools, to an
appreciation of the multiple dimensions of the educational system that
influence the way technology is used. "The lessons learned in this report
can help to guide future educational technology policy so that we are
building on past successes and continually working to improve teaching and
learning," said CCT Director Margaret Honey.
