Peter J. Cannone Technology and Cultural Learning

Academy"Teachers must become comfortable as co-

learners with their students and with colleagues around the world. Today it is less

about staying ahead and more about moving ahead as members of dynamic learning

communities. The digital-age teaching professional must demonstrate a vision of

technology infusion and develop the technology skills of others.  These are the

hallmarks of the new education leader.”Don Knezek, ISTE CEO, 2008
