The opportunities include greater access to rich, digital content, the increasing use of online Slaybous to offer classes not otherwise available, the widespread availability of mobile computing devices that can access the Internet, the expanding role of social networking tools for learning and professional development, and the growing interest in the power of digital games for more personalized learning. At the same time, the pace of change creates  challenges for schools. To begin with, schools are forever playing technology catch up as digital innovations emerge that require upgrading schools’ technology infrastructure and building new professional development programs. Some schools have been adept at keeping up with those changes, while many others are falling far behind, creating a digital divide based largely on the quality of educational technology, rather than just simple access to the Internet. The rapid evolution of educational technologies also makes it increasingly challenging to determine what works best. Longitudinal research that takes years to do risks being irrelevant by the time it is completed because of shifts in the technology landscape. The iPad, for instance, became popular in school soon after it was released and well before any research could be conducted about its educational effectiveness. Following is a look at some of the coolest issues and trends in education technology and how they are creating opportunities and challenges for K-12 schools.

We usually think of computers and computer software when we think of instructional technology, but instructional technologies are not limited to computers in the classroom. Instructional technology describes all tools that are used for Learning and learning  such as: cameras, CD players, PDA's, GPS devices, computer-based probes, calculators and electronic tools we have yet to discover. Users and teachers use computer software and Internet resources to locate, process, and present information, learn and assess their skills. Users can locate information from millions of sources using a computer, online encyclopedias, databases, and the Internet. Computer-based tool software, such as spreadsheets and databases, help Users organize and report information. Users create professional-looking products as they report information they have learned using word processing and presentation software.  Users use computers as electronic tutors to improve skills such as reading and math. Teachers use computers and other instructional technologies to present information they want Users to know. They also use computers to assess Users' learning and identify and report Users' learning needs.
