Although technology has allowed for many positive and useful tools for learning, as in this case, there are a few glitches. On the plus side, there are laptops, interactive whiteboards, document cameras, and Microsoft PowerPoint for those school districts that fight for such luxuries. However, teachers are competing against, Facebook mobile, Nintendo DS, and cell phone cameras. Students are found more often searching their Facebook pages, than searching Wikipedia. They are most likely caught using cell phone cameras to cheat on exams and send sexually explicit images to their friends and enemies, rather than capturing lab experiment results.
