nope. it aint like giving a tractor to a farmer. larry cuban wrote a
good book on this. he may have changed his position recently, but he
outlined the complexity of the teacher culture and why several
technologies have failed to make a dent in education. s. jobs admitted
the same. gates and bloomberg and the president and the rest are
ignoring the reality; productivity is not merely a matter of widgets
and hours worked; education is not a race to the top, is not a
business or a factory.
