THE SUCCESSFUL PROLIFERATION of computers in K-12 classrooms across the country is due partially to recent associations between education technology and school reform. For more than a decade now, reformers at the state and local levels have attempted to revolutionize the way schools operate and students learn with a variety of top-to-bottom and bottom-to-top changes in administration, curriculum and outreach. As a result of many of these reforms, technology plays a major role in reducing professional pressures on teachers and increasing the efficiency of student comprehension. These links will provide information on a few issues in hopes for creating a better understanding of the connection between technology and educational change.

The breach between learning and use, which is captured by the folk categories ''know what'' and "know how" may well be a product of the structure and practices of our education system. Man! methods of didactic education assume a separation between knowing and doing, treating knowledge as an integral, self-sufficient substance. theoretically independent of the situations in which it is learned and used.
