Comments:   No one's picture is complete and the process never ends, thereby, connections between technology and the arts can be found and expressed through so many techniques to convey a message and foster students' voices. Educational administrators and school boards need to be reminded that schools have an obligation to provide the fuel that will ignite the mind, spark the aspirations and illuminate the total being. The arts can often serve as that fuel. They are ways we apply our ima gination, thoughts, and feelings through a range of "languages" to illuminate life in all its sadness, pleasures and mystery.

 Every child should have the opportunity to acquire familiarity with these languages to assist them and be better prepared to navigate them through the plethora of images that bombard them everyday. Effective interaction with information technology provides students with opportunities to utilize the rich, interactive capabilities of information technology.

 "Arts education should serve as a model for education, not the other way around"  - Elliot W. Etsner
