I think that a new tool for evaluation is a very large accomplishment, because sometimes teachers do not know what amount of technology is the right amount to use. This is a big problem sometimes, because I have seen classrooms where the teacher uses absolutely no computers and the entire classroom is based on a chalkboard. This can help the teacher assess the correct amount of technology they can use in their classroom, so that the students do not feel lost or their level of stress increases. The point of this is to find the most effective method of teaching to save time and ensure that students are not left behind. I think that every school needs to participate in this because we still have an issue where schools do not all rank at the same level. Schools no matter what area they are in should offer the latest technological tools available, as well as meet or exceed learning standards. Technology can help solve many issues with students not performing the same in the classroom, as well as be able to aid the students with their learning capacity. Technology is a tool that can enhance the precision of the instructor to teach the classroom, I think all schools should work together so that the students and teachers are benefited from this.



I think that the school districts need to be cautious of the applications that software companies make for the classroom. The applications need to be created to follow the districts guidelines, as said in the previous post that everyone needs to work in conjunction so that student learning is disrupted.  The article mentions that there are many companies that do not follow the specific guidelines, which are that they cannot use student data for business purposes. Yet many applications that were available in schools would collect data from students and sell them to third party vendors. There was no regulation to this in the past, but laws have been passed so now the software companies will face lawsuits if this happens again. I think it is excellent that we protect student information so that companies do not target them for illicit purposes. That being said, it is not easy to land a contract with a school district for software applications. The software companies need to be effective and ensure that applications help the students.
