Is It Okay To Be A Technologically Illiterate Teacher?

I really found ."Is It Okay To Be A Technologically Illiterate Teacher?" post interesting. The blogger made alot of good points however, I don't believe anyone should feel ashamed because they may be technologically illeterate. I do feel like teachers should have some technology skills. The blogger stated,"If a teacher today is not technologically literate - and is unwilling to make the effort to learn more - it's equivalent to a teacher 30 years ago who didn't know how to read and write." I believe that's true. Technology is rapidly taking over in the classroom. Having stated that I believe that its part of a teachers professional developement to stay on top with the technology changes. The principle should then take responsibility of makeing sure teachers participate in workshops which are for technology. We as teachers are part of a team and I feel like if one fails we all fail. So instead of critizing those who are technolically illiterate we should hold workshops which discuss the differences and changes of technology. My final opinion is that its not okay to be technologically illiterate but it's what one does to become technologically up to date that matters. Don't just sit on the side lines take advantage of the workshops that can increase your professional developement.
