The Plainedge School District via its Technology Roadmap looks to facilitate student learning and standards for all learners as

• utlined

in the International Society for Technology Educators (ISTE) National Education Technology Standards (NETS) and The Partnership for 2D' Century Learning. As such the Plainedge School District's goal is to foster the application of these standards via technology integration. Core Beliefs for Educational Technology 1. Engagement and learning increase with the use of technology. 2. Technology supports differentiation of learning. 3. Active participation and contributions to the learning process increase with the use of technology. 4. Project and inquiry based learning experiences are enhanced with the use of technology. 5. Technology skills are best learned in context through project and inquiry based teaming. 6. Technology supports broader collaboration

• pportunities both locally and globally.

7. 21st century communication and collaboration requires fluency in the use of technology.

“Our students have changed radically. Today’s students are no longer the people our education system was designed to teach” (Prensky, 2002) Digital Natives are just wired differently and:

• are surrounded by digital content;
• are used to receiving information really fast;
• prefer graphical representation before text;
• function best when connected to their network of

resources and people;

• see content as something malleable – something they

can reshape in new and interesting ways;

• see their technology as an extension of their brain;
• can’t imagine a world without the technology

Today’s students want mediated immersion (Oblinger and Oblinger, 2005). They want blended learning environments combining

• nline

digital content and interactive experiences.
