As we have seen, the definition of 'technology' is a bit of a problem in that it seems to depend a bit on when you were born. That said, for most tutors, computers and the web still seem to have a technology edge to them and still have a 'newness' edge over books for students. These areas (computers and the web) will be the focus here (though your students' attitudes toward computers may be a lot like your attitude to airplanes compared to your parents' attitudes). In any case, you might want to use computers and the web because:

	Although many of these same resources exist on paper, the computer can help leverage your time by finding things more quickly.
	Although many of these activities can be accomplished without a computer, the computer may help to tune the content to the precise needs of the particular child.
	You can help teach the child how to find information independently using these resources.
	You can help teach the child how to make thoughtful decisions about the quality of the information available and how trustworthy it might be.
