Schools– 2 Groups– Content Area: Civil War– One Group taught using Sage on the Stage methodology– One Group taught using innovative applications of technology and

– Students in the traditional group could recall almost nothing about the historical content
– Students in the traditional group defined history as: “the record of the facts of the past”
– Students in the digital group “displayed elaborate concepts and ideas that they had extended to other areas of history”
– Students in the digital group defined history as:
“a process of interpreting the past from different perspectives”

We are asking the wrong questions
• Does technology have a direct correlation on student achievement?
• Why haven’t we discovered the Silver Bullet?• What is the School of the Future Blueprint?

6. Remove the current of inertia… Just imagine if innovation was “swimming
downstream”
