What is Higher Education Opportunity Act

Technology integration into higher education is considered essential in terms of achieving accountability performance measures that qualify institutions to receive federal grants. The policy presented in this chapter focuses on technology integration into curricula and instruction as a means to enhance student outcomes. This chapter describes the problems that prevent higher education institutions from integrating technology effectively into their educational systems, tracks the implementation of America's Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008, and measures the progress of Section 204, Part G of the law. The chapter also proposes key solutions in an effort to better integrate technology into higher education classrooms.
