Editorial: Research on the Effectiveness of Technology in Schools: The Roles of Pedagogy and Content

The field of educational technology is under external pressure to provide evidence of identifiable learning outcomes that can be attributed to technology. Leaders within the educational technology research community agree about the importance of such evidence. Each year the Society for Information Technology and Teacher Education (SITE) jointly sponsors a National Technology Leadership Summit (NTLS) to consider such issues in concert with partner associations. Ten national education associations are currently partners in the National Technology Leadership Coalition (www.NTLCoalition.org).
