Teachers Lacking Technology

Over the course of this class, I have read many times that one of the barriers to using technology within the classroom is that teachers are not educated on how to use the software they is provided for them.  I have now noticed that I see this on a daily basis.  I am called out of my classroom several times a day by other teachers to help with something they are trying to do on the computer.  Sometimes this may be for something they are using in a lesson, or sometimes it's another TA trying to figure out how to use Excel.  Wouldn't it be great if all teachers were "up to date" on technology?  But this could never really happen, the technology that is used within schools and anywhere else for that matter is changed so often, the only way to stay "up to date" is to learn as you go.  This is how I seem to go about it, anyway.  However, without a good basis in technology, learning as you go doesn't seem to be so simple either.
