Technology

Technology is quickly growing. This video, used in class, points out some major eye-openers about how technology is going to shape the near, and far, future. It is important to keep up with the new technology since it is changing so often. Some people are scared of the changes that technology is bringing about, but it shouldn't be about being scared, just keeping up with it. Once you lag behind, I think it would be hard to catch up.

Especially in education, where the computers and technology stay updated, it is important to stay updated with them. It will not be uncommon for students to know more about the new technology than the teachers do- it is not uncommon now.

This video basically sates what I have written above. Interviews of parents show that the parents are sometimes overwhelmed by the amount of new technology that has emerged and are trying to keep up with it so that they:

1. Can relate to their children who use this technology, and

2. Stay up-to-date and aren't left out.

On a less serious note, this is a funny video I found on YouTube that relates to new technology.
