Grasping the innovations possible through technology-based instruction was a challenge, and I moved into the information age of technology use on a daily basis over time (Frand) — and not always graciously! The industrial age mindset I had is still in place for many of the teachers with whom I work, those who have been teaching for many years and learned and are comfortable with a face-to-face, traditional approach to teaching and learning. For them, computers and other technological innovations offer a very new way to communicate. These teachers may possess limited skills in using technology, and are lacking perhaps even what others might consider the basics.
