3. Things to Discuss
• How can education tap into the power of programs
like Milo? Do we want to?
• Simply having students use technology does not raise
achievement. The impact depends on the ways the
technology is used. What are some ways that would
be effective?
• Companies all over the U.S. outsource jobs because
our students today graduate lacking 2 essential skills:
– effective communication
– the ability to work collaboratively.
How can we use instructional technology to change
this trend?
