The world has changed, and so should our teaching and learning environments. The focus on technology in the last decade has notresulted in improved student achievement. In order to “get it right” this time, we need to focus on pedagogy, technology and the change process in a Web 2.0 World.  Tom D’Amico shares strategies that were used in his district to focus on teaching and learning with the right infrastructure to help engage both students and teachers. Where should you start? Should it be Wireless environment, iPads, BYOD, Smart Boards, and Blended Learning – or – Vision, Culture, Pedagogy and Assessment?
