I have been going over idea's on how we can incorporate technology into a class room and how can we keep it safe and enjoyable for everyone?

Some of the sites I have been to that offer free programs could easily be added to the classroom experience. These programs offer things from mind maps to animated stick men and movie makers.
Teachers could make any subject an enjoyable hands on experience with these programs.

I also had an image in my head of how I see the future classroom, it's not at home with kids sitting in front of their computers but in a room with a large computer screen mounted up the front (and/or projector). Every child has a touch pad that directly links to that screen, so they can add and take away information while the teacher guides them through their learning experience.

With change also comes some boundaries and I think our major problem is child safety. How can we be sure that children wont jump on chat sites during class or see something inappropriate during school hours.? We need to have guild lines in place to insure that students know the regulations and are also willing to abide by them.
