This document discusses effective technology integration for 21st century learners. It defines technology integration as combining technology into the whole learning experience. To effectively integrate technology, teachers must know what technologies to use, when to use them, and how to use them. Technology can provide opportunities to extend learning, create new works, and improve communication and international experiences. Technology integration should enhance skills like core subjects, learning and innovation, information and media literacy, and life and career skills. Teachers must use technology in the classroom since students are already using it outside of school. An example given is having students use technology to creatively solve old problems.
