Your Position/Introduction:
I agree with the statement. Usually principals want the teachers to implement technology
in the classroom; however some principals do not pay sufficient attention and give value
to improve teachers technology development. They usually expect and want teachers to
take all the responsibilities of learning technology tools by themselves. Therefore
expectation is important but also supporting and guiding teachers to use technology is
essential.
