The 3E framework assists teachers with the practical implementation of technology in their classes. It is based on a continuum which includes the following elements:

  1. Enhance - Adopting technology in simple and effective ways to actively support students and increase their activity and self-responsibility
  2. Extend - Further use of technology that facilitates key aspects of student’s individual and collaborative learning and assessment through increasing their choice and control
  3. Empower - Developed use of technology that requires higher order individual and collaborative learning that reflects how knowledge is created and used in the professional environment

The examples provided in the U of S version of the 3E learning technologies framework include the six key components of our digital information literacy initiative.

Strangely enough, there continues to be resistance towards the use of technology amongst a large number of teachers who have graduated till the nineties. Fortunately enough many of them use smartphones! Optimum integration of technology in teaching will happen only when teachers are involved in the decision-making process, they are given enough training and support rather than being dumped into the deep end, and yes, the technology should be 'user-friendly'. We have moved away from chalk and talk, we use laptops and projectors in class, we have wifi, and are soon going have students bringing their own devices.
