Top 10 ed-tech stories of 2006 & ECAR Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology, 2006

Top 10 ed-tech stories of 2006

Across the nation in 2006, educators sought out new policies to deal with the problems posed by social-networking web sites and other emerging online tools. In Washington, voters ushered in a new Democratic Congress with plans to overhaul President Bush's landmark No Child Left Behind Act; and in classrooms from coast to coast, educators continued their search for new educational technology solutions destined to prepare today's students for the challenges of a new century.

In this two-part retrospective, the editors of eSchool News count down what we believe to be the top educational technology issues from 2006--many of which no doubt will continue to make headlines in the coming year.

We hope you'll enjoy this look back through our archives and will use the information you find here to make the best educational technology decisions for your students in the New Year.
