I think that the creators of the common core and NC essential standards intended for technology to be used more often in the classroom. However, I do not believe the standards themselves will have any influence on the use of technology for learning. Regardless of the standard, teachers are responsible for determining how material is presented. Teachers who place an emphasis on the use of technology will continue to do so and influence their colleagues to do the same. The opposite is true for teachers who do not emphasize the use of technology.

Piggybacking this notion, I think the common lessons (CMAPP anyone?) districts provide teachers will influence the use of technology in the classroom. This will especially be true in the beginning as common core and NC essential standards are rolled out. If the provided lessons incorporate technology, more people will use technology in the classroom to teach it. For better or worse, it has been my experience that a lot of teachers follow what is readily available to the letter.
