huh! School Teachers are finally learning how to use computers. Working in the Education industry I know how challenging it could be to develop web applications for teachers who are no so comfortable with technology.

Traditionally teachers just didn’t have the right attitude towards computers. For them it was more like an expensive typewriter, yet students looked at it as a new playground and they have become so darn good at making computers a part of their lives.

I remember the time I was a student in Capilano College, nobody was allowed to use the library computers to check their emails, or they had to face the angry library lady who would try to convince them Computers are research tools, not toys. I think teachers are catching up because they don’t want to stay behind the students. My advice to all the eLearning developers. Start from the students, school teachers and principals will follow :)
