Saw this over on Karl Fisch‘s blog…once I stopped laughing, I realized it had a worthwhile message, especially for those of us who work with teachers on a daily basis.

I see this kind of uncertainty everyday. I admit that I sometimes lean towards frustration when teachers seem to be disinterested, even obstructionist, in utilizing technology. However, it is then, when I must step back and assess the true motives of teachers, that I realize that most want to succeed with technology.

Many teachers, just like our students, struggle with new ideas. They are comfortable with where they are at and see technology as a lot of effort. But most of all I think many teachers are embarassed (just like many of our students) about what they have missed and how they are left behind.
