Marge Scherer…reports on two quotes from article in Educational Leadership "Education has to change. We can't pull kids into learning in school if they are engaged in a different world outside school.“ "If you don't know how to use technology in class, you are in trouble. But, of course, technology is a double-edged sword. You can use it poorly, or you can use it well.“ February 2011 | Volume 68 | Number 5Teaching Screenagers Pages 7-7
