Easy is Hard” — But the Right Technology Solutions Can Help Transform Education | Technology@Intel

Easy is Hard” — But the Right Technology Solutions Can Help Transform Education | Technology@Intel: "I wanted to share this inspiring blog posted by Paige Johnson in the CSR@Intel blog on how governments are using technology to improve education in their countires. Paige is a scientist by training and a teacher by passion who has devoted the past 20 years to education, curriculum development and professional development. The past 14 of those years have been with Intel, where her current title is Education Strategist. Recently, she has also been providing sabbatical coverage for Brian Gonzalez, Director of Global Education Sales Programs at Intel.

I recently took on a new role that put me in closer touch with countries where technology in education has moved high up on the political agenda. Not all that long ago, governments were asking, “Why should we do this?” and “How do we do this?” Today, a number of countries are recognizing that ensuring that every student has access to computer and the internet is a key to being economically competitive — locally, regionally and globally. These countries are pioneers in ensuring all young people have ubiquitous the ability to develop 21st century skills at an early age."
