technology reflection

This image from Eric Sheninger's book, Digital Leadership Changing Paradigms for Changing Times,  was quite eye-opening.  As I read chapter 9, I could see how students are empowered and challenged as they become more active participants in their learning...But when I saw this table, it became very clear to me that I was not quite on the right track.  I understood the importance of the technological tools, but I think my focus was a bit "cloudy." I was more concerned with producing a product, rather than empowering students with the digital tools that impact the learning outcomes.  This visual representation helped me gain more clarity in my thinking and goals.  I definitely feel enlightened after reading this chapter.  I absolutely love the line "Technology is a tool, not a learning outcome."  WOW!!!
