I agree that technology in the classroom can be a good thing, but that most of the time it is not necessary and only takes away from student learning.  One reason I believe this is because schools spend so much money on getting the technology, but yet they don't train the teachers who are supposed to be teaching it to students.  I also believe that it can be a huge distraction as the blog mentions, due to the emphasis on the font, the color, pictures, etc., not to mention the availability of the internet to surf the web.
I do think that technology integration is important in schools, however I do not believe that this should be our major concern, unless there is absolute proof that it makes learning more effective for the students.  Otherwise, I agree with the blog, and think that instead of spending so much time trying to integrate technology that we should stick our old traditional methods of teaching and only use the technology when it pertains to the lesson and to the better understanding of the students.
