The Pros and Cons of Education Technology

by The Milken Exchange on Education Technology

8/1/99 | This short video explores the various "sides" of the argument over education technology. Some of our featured guests tell us that education technology is too expensive and has shown too few results for schools to be using it with vigor. Others tell us that their students who were once failing and uninterested in school are suddenly raising their grades, showing up for class, and solving difficult problems through the use of technology and advanced learning systems. By addressing the debate and giving a forum to this discussion, The Pros and Cons of Education Technology is a valuable lesson for teachers and policymakers interested in making wise decisions about putting technology to effective use in schools.
