In what ways can technology integration be planned for a lesson?
Discussion of the limitless classroom technology applications can be facilitated by describing them according to four types.
*Technology as business resource.
*Technology as subject. Technology is the subject when the software or hardware itself is the focus of learning.
*Technology as content delivery. Technology can comprise the majority of the lesson.
*Technology as lesson support.

The four types of technology integration you described can be used in different ways. It seems like technology as the subject never occurs anymore. It seems that basic computer skills are not taught as often as they used to be taught because it is assumed that students are already familiar with the technology, but that is not always the case.
