What do you think about teachers and technology???

What do you think about teachers and technology? Should they take a computer class every few years, to keep up in technology? Do you think they should know some things about computers, or not be able to teach? It's something to think about. I read a blog about this. The writer believed that principals and teachers who were technology illiterate should be held accountable. What makes not sense to me, is that other country's are so far advanced than us and here our educators and principals are illiterate in technology. Nothing has been done about it!
The writer quotes,"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 totally agree with this! With me as a student, if you don't know anything about a computer, your in trouble. You will get behind! Everything is going to technology! It's time to raise our education standards!
