What technology has to offer to education is ever more abundant, creative and reliable. Be it in the image technology, in the computers and in their combinations, the possibilities are almost endless. Nevertheless, academic schools fail to materialize the benefits one could expect from such resources. While there is ample evidence that well-focused initiatives show positive results on learning, this learning potential does not generalize for educational systems as a whole. School sociology is at odds with the modes of utilization that would make a difference. As a result, students lose. In contrast, computers in students' homes improve learning. Even more admirable, non-formal schooling modes have been using technology with ample success.
