Information and communications technology is transforming the way present students acquire knowledge, create products, and build relationship.  The available and emerging digital access and tools are broadening the means for all students to participate in higher level thinking, collaboration, and project based learning.

Schools do not have the choice of incorporating computer software and Internet services in the instructional events.   Rather, the question is how well will the school use information and communications technology to advance learning and teaching?  And how ready are the school administrators and mentors in supporting and guiding the students to become innovative and productive learners and citizens inside the digital world?
