Action Research Topic

      Ok, we finally decided on a topic.  How does the proficiency level of the teacher affect the authentic use of technology in the classroom.  This research plan will answer will involve several components.  Does the proficiency level of the teacher affect the way he/she uses technology in the classroom?  Is technology (including technology labs) used for authentic technology use?  How are teachers implementing technology in the classroom? How can technology be used to maximize student learning?  I know that this is alot of questions to answer but the subject really will help develop a better use of technology in the classroom. 
     With the amount of technology around us it is suprisingly that the technology TEKs are not as detailed as they project the need will be in 2025.  Over a decade from now the students of today will have graduated and be in there higher level education or careers and it is important that just as we (digital immigrants) stay up with technology that the digital native must as well because it is ever changing.
