My Reaction to Dexter

I Really found this piece interesting because it seems to take into account all that needs to happen in order to effectively incorporate technology into a classroom.  I like how Dexter mentions that teachers need to support their students with technology and that the administration needs to support the teachers.  Its interesting because often times the public likes to put the blame on teachers, when in fact it is the administration that is lacking or vice versa.  Basically, everyone needs to do their part otherwise it doesn't work. 

I found it useful that Dexter provided some ideas or principles that we, as future educators can implement in our own classroom someday. It's so tough to come by some good advice, but i found the advice in this reading very usable and practical.  Often times, teachers will get ideas, but never get any input on how to make those goals a reality.  Dexter does a good job of providing some useful ways that these principles can be applied.
