Connection Found Between Classroom Technology Use and STEM Career Interest

One of the key findings recently released in "Mapping a Personalized Learning Journey - K-12 Students and Parents Connect the Dots with Digital Learning" correlated math and science teachers who support and direct classroom learning with technology with students' increased interest in STEM careers.  Twenty-seven percent of students in digitally-enhanced classrooms expressed interest in STEM careers versus 20% of those in traditional classes.  The report addresses multiple issues related to students' technology use in enhancing their own learning.  To view and/or download the full report, visit:  http://www.tomorrow.org/speakup/2012_PersonalizedLearning.html
