Scott McLeod did a great job summarizing the Christiansen thesis of technology and its "disruptive" influence on schools. I believe McLeod is correct in saying that technologies will only take hold and "disrupt" education only to the extent that they move the ball forward and make things better for kids and teachers. Schools are aligned to do things according to the present model--new technologies and their influence disrupts the old way and makes us think and do different.
