"Technology has the ability to enhance relationships between teachers and students. When teachers effectively integrate technology into subject areas, teachers grow into roles of adviser, content expert and coach. Technology helps make teaching and learning more meaningful and fun." (Wantulok, Tyler. "How important is Technology in Education? Pine Cove's Top 10 Reasons" Pine Cove Consulting) 

Technology is a necessity in education whether we openly embrace it or avoid it like D2L 102. The very nature of online studies is technology, so staying abreast of the latest developments in educational software and programming, as well as keeping our equipment updated, is paramount in making sure our online programs are successful. 

"Online learning opportunities and the use of open educational resources and other technologies can increase educational productivity by accelerating the rate of learning; reducing costs associated with instructional materials or program delivery; and better utilizing teacher time." (Use of Technology in Teaching and Learning, US Department of Education)
