This is a course on technology integration, so we should never lose sight of the potential to integrate technology in the curriculum

"Effective integration of technology is achieved when students are able to select technology tools to help them obtain information in a timely manner, analyse and synthesise the information, and present it professionally. The technology should become an integral part of how the classroom functions — as accessible as all other classroom tools."
