The use of technology in the classroom is ever-growing. Have you harnessed the motivational power of technology-or hidden from it? ReadWriteThink.org houses dozens of online, research-based interactive tools to help develop 21st-century learners. How can you engage your students with "games" and new technologies? How can you reach struggling learners with interactive tools? How can you inspire a schoolwide effort to embrace new technology? Learn how from Karen Pelekis, a classroom teacher; Emily Manning, an interventionist; and Katrina Allen, a technology facilitator.
