The significance of the intersection of technology and literacy is blooming with each school year. When technology and the content standards of a given lesson or topic are intersected, students are able to take control of their own learning and at a pace that is suitable to their needs. Students are also able to engage on a deeper level with their learning as technology is seen in nearly all aspects of 21st century living and learning. Students tend to be interested in technology and need to be able to keep up with the ever-changing cycles of our digital world.

There are many benefits that await our students that struggle in the area of literacy, and technology is there to be adaptive and motivating for students at all levels within their literacy development.  If nothing else, technology allows our students more choices in their learning, which means students taking control over their learning. From here, students can work with whichever learning platform they choose and interact meaningfully and with more confidence.
