Let’s Talk Technology…

November 4, 2007

One of my favorite blog posts recently was an interview about technology with a 14-year old boy who goes by the pseudonym Arthus.  The way I see it, it’s about time that we started asking kids about technology in schools.  After all, they’re our customers!

Unfortunately, Arthus isn’t impressed.  The way he sees it, we’re cutting off our kids’ tentacles every time they come to school.

So what do you think?  Are your teachers doing anything exciting with technology?  What would you like to see them doing?  Why do you think that technology is almost always absent from school?  How would you change things if you were in charge?

Let’s see if we can get some interesting posts about technology right here on our blog.  Here are a list of questions that might prompt your thinking:
