TechnoLang members share a clear vision of the technologically-integrated learning environment. Technology integration has been achieved in the secondary language arts classroom when the teacher confidently and wisely partners with technology as a natural component of achieving desired student learning and when students engage with technology in a way that also prepares them for their futures. Continual, thorough professional development that empowers the teacher will in turn empower the student. Empowered students will have the skills and discernment to access appropriate information, synthesize ideas, create, and collaborate to produce quality work that effectively demonstrates their learning.
What additional details would you add to clarify for your academic discipline?

Jane,
Your post sounds like a well thought out mission statement. Thank you! Also, the goals you stated are broad enough to incorporate ELL and special needs themes in which some of our members are currently teaching in those disciplines.
Amen to Zena's comment! Great work, Jane!
