Teachers can learn about technology through answering their own questions. The Intel Teach to the Future Program is a professional development program that shows teachers how to produce a curriculum plan that would require/encourage student use of several technology tools. Through this program, teachers take several hours over the course of several weeks, or even months to train themselves and to produce this new curriculum plan. Because the teacher is making this curriculum for the students, it would ensure that both student AND teacher know and understand the technology they are working with. Here is a video that explains more about the Intel Teach program, and also a magazine article showing one teacher's success story from the Intel Teach courses.
