Navarro Middle School b. Rest of Texas Digital Natives vs. Digital Immigrants-the importance of integrating technology What are your concerns with Technology Integration? Colleagues are afraid of integrating technology for many reasons. With my colleagues it seems like their major concerns are with infrastructure. Ironically, according to our STaR chart, our infrastructure scores are the highest. The members of the wiki are very frustrated with availability. It seems that because several of us are non-TAKS subjects, we do not have to resources like the others do. This is very frustrating to those involved. Suggestions for Solutions? It may help to chat with administration and express how some of the teachers are feeling. It needs to be understood that ALL teachers should have equal accessibility to all technology.
