If we are to be effective school leaders, then we must not only understand, but incorporate technology into our professional daily lives. Being tech saavy is an intregal part of being an educator that is necessary for learning objectives to be met. Additionally, the use of technology in assessment practices is important for immediate feedback purposes. Learners need to be made aware of their errors in a timely manner so as to improve their skill sets, thereby achieving learning outcomes.
