There are multiple reasons why educational technology has failed:
Costs: Technology is very expensive. Some school boards can not afford technology, or spend it on something else.
Lack of teacher technology education: Its hard to create workshops when there isnt a demand. It is also hard to find teachers who are leaders in education.
Intimidated about Technology: Many teachers are reluctant to learn about new technology. As technology leaders it our job to de-mystify this concept.
Lack of Technology in schools: Many schools have limited or no technology.
Generation Gap: There are many younger and older teachers who do not believe that technology is useful in a classroom.
Difficult Integration: Many teachers who might be trained, can have a hard time integrating technology in the classroom. Its hard to bring something new into a classroom.
