The 2002 law of "No Child Left Behind" is up for debate for renewal in 2007. The law affects the way students are taught, what tests to take, how teachers are trained and how to schools should spend money.
Although each area mentioned is important the law said nothing of new technology in the education system. Technology is a new way of life, and by not providing the students the opportunity to learn and grow with that technology they are left behind.
