Pedagogical FoundationsCurriculum must drive the need for technology integration
Technology is the tool used to facilitate student-centered learning
Scaffolding technology skills has to occur prior to the expectation that students can make thoughtful choices about its appropriate useDegree to which students can utilize technology is also dependent upon their level of cognitive ability.
