Research

**Why Use Technology?** Research shows it:
 * Augments motivation to learn
 * Encourages collaborative learning
 * Supports development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills
 * Gives students more control over their own learning
 * Moves classrooms from teacher-dominated to student-centered
 * "Allows teacher to differentiate instruction more efficiently by providing a wider variety of avenues for learning that reach students of divergent readiness levels, interests, and learning styles."
