A decade ago, access to technology was limited and providing technology was highest education priorities of any nation. But now the situation has changed. According to secretary, Fourth Annual Report on Teacher Quality, Virtually every school with access to computers has internet access (99%), compared to only 35 percent of schools in 1994, according to National Centre for education Statistics (NCES)(Prasad and Jones, 2005). Many different types of technologies can be used to support and enhance learning. Everything from video content and digital movie making to lap top computing and handheld technologies (Marshall, 2002) have been used in classroom and new uses of technology such as podcasting are constantly emerging.
