My Vision of the 21st Century Classroom

...is one where teachers are not intimidated by technology, but rather welcome it into their daily lessons.
...is one where students are given opportunities to use the technology themselves.
...is one where the textbook is no longer the only resource.
...is one where students are given an opportunity to learn the content in a variety of ways - for the visual, kinesthetic, and auditory learner.
...is one where teachers are provided adequate training so that technology makes teaching easier, not harder.
...is one where teachers are given opportunities to collaborate with others.
...is one where assessment of students is made easier so that teachers, students, and parents can recieve immediate feedback.
...is one where teachers can quickly and easily communicate with parents, students, and faculty.

What's your vision for the 21st Century Classroom?
