It is well understood that the use of technology in the GENED classroom enhances the educational experience by building efficiency into the process.  The effective use of technology in education provides the student with enhanced opportunities for collaboration,  communication and information gathering.

It has long been noted that the effective use of technology in education has the potential to reach far beyond the four walls of the classroom in order to  engage the student with a broader spectrum of resources and experiences, thus deepening their understanding of course objectives.

Meyer (2016) highlights the benefits of a technology event that linked SPED students around the globe.
