He should have done his homework before dinner, but he couldnt resist hanging out with his friends. Now hes in for it, unless . . . . He begins to plot: If I get up early, and stay in at recess, I can finish it in time. Plan in place, he drifts off to sleep. Homework anxiety Homework anxiety is common among kids Bradfords age. Hes in the fourth grade, and the pressures on. In grades K-three, teachers are focused on childrens social development and basic skills. In fourth grade, its not just the concrete stuff anymore, says Maureen Morgan, adjunct professor of education at Lesley College in Massachusetts. Teachers are now asking kids to look at abstractions and synthesize information, and the amount of written work increases. This change in expectations has not gone unnoticed by Bradford: As fourth graders, weve got more privileges we can walk all over the building. But along with that comes more responsibility. We read more the books are a lot bigger, and I spend a lot more time on homework than I used to, explains Bradford. The teachers used to let us off easy cause we were younger, but now if we dont get all our assignments done by Friday, we get detention.

Extractions: Chapter Three Chapter Two provided descriptions both of what is and what could be. The shape of the future use of technology to facilitate learning depends upon the decisions that are made by schools, school systems, states, teachers, and families. In turn, their decisions will largely be based on their perceptions concerning the importance and value of that technology. In this chapter, we want to explore the costs of acquiring learning environments that utilize significant levels of computing, telecommunications, and video. We begin with a brief effort to estimate current expenditures for education and then go on to look at the costs of the technology that was used by the group of schools that were described in Chapter Two. We use those data to make rough estimates of the continuing costs associated with decisions to equip schools and school faculties with equipment and capabilities similar to those in the schools we examined. Naturally, this implies a significant increase in technology-related expenditures over what is currently spent. Much of the current impetus to bring more technology into schools is not motivated by a desire to improve the learning of students in academic areas. Instead it is motivated by the sense that information and computational technology has become so ubiquitous in our lives that schools must develop the basic skills in students so that they can function in further schooling and work. Moving to the levels of technology in the five schools described in the preceding chapter accomplishes this goal but adds much more. Increasing the level of technology enables fundamental changes in pedagogy, in the information that students can use, and in the manner in which they use their time. These changes result in significant improvements in their learning.
