What is a Teacher's Role Using Tech Tools?

Salman Khan of the  free and popular Khan Academy website has often stated that his videos and other tech tools do not replace classroom teachers.  Instead they make teachers even more important.  One reason is that they give teachers real time data to diagnose weak points and design appropriate interventions. 
I've recommended Khan Academy before as a wonderful website to help our T1 students in math especially.  www.khanacademy.org/

Have any of you used these videos?  How have they worked or not worked for your students?
Did you redefined your role as a teacher? Share your comments with others below.
