What's wrong with books?
There is nothing wrong with standard educational tools such as books and worksheets. But, they really shouldn't be used all the time. Just as theorists and researchers have proved in the past there should be hands on and exploratory, constructivist approaches to education. With the use of technology it allows the individual to use the material according to their needs. For students who are better visual learners a laptop with digital images may be better for him or her. A student who does better with auditory learning may prefer books on an mp3 that they could listen to at home or during choice time. Technology allows opportunities that one may not find anywhere else.
