Tied Positions: No vs. Yes
Technology has developed quickly in the last twenty years, offering numerous options to instructors today that were not available before, but the question raised is whether or not that is positive. Is technology actually helpful in supporting pedagogical aims and generating innovative new ways to teach or is it merely a distraction or frustration that requires additional time and money without any real pedagogical benefit?
