Teaching teachers about technology

I came across an article titled 'Learning to teach with Technology'. The article was on the Education week website and talks about how many teaching colleges are starting to incorporate technology into their teaching courses. With my minor in technology, I obviously get to take courses that involve incorporating it into my teaching but outside of those courses, I haven't personally experienced this new strategy. How great is that to see first hand ways that you can use technology in your science, math and even social studies curriculum? The new phase of teachers entering the education world will be already so advanced and knowledgeable about how to use these technologies so will be able to implement them with ease. I think UNI needs to jump on the bandwagon and start incorporating examples of technology use into all curriculum areas.
