I see what it looks like. I have even downloaded pictures of what a technology rich learning space looks like. I despair that I feel we as educators are still so far from achieving some of the elements of a techology integrated classroom especially in the area of students creating. It tends to be teachers creating and students following a set of instructions to create.
Thankyou for the list it makes you refocus on what is at the end of the rainbow.

mrsdurff, I’ve read your blog many times, and read your students blogs. No, even from my humble and likely naive vantage point, you clearly do not fail. I thought about the section on the room for precisely the reason you point out. If you have hard wired computers, then you have them where they are. Integrating or better yet embedding tech into teaching means having it fluidly accessible throughout much of the day (I teach middle school). Getting the equipment into classrooms is something for school and district admin to contend with. In your case, there is no reason why you couldn’t work this backwards using a lab to teach 21st century literacy skills as you do.

How could this list be adapted for middle school and high school? I work in a computer lab where furniture cannot be moved. Would I fail?

Rick, this is the first time I’ve seen someone do a checklist for technology integration in the classroom. This should be a must read for all technology oriented teachers and admin.
