In "No Choice" by Will Richardson, the article talks about how students in most schools do not have a choice weather to use technology or not. I believe that students should have a choice because students learn better in some ways than they do in others and they might not be as good at typing than they are at writing with pen and paper. This story is similar to the "Keyboard Vs Pen" which asks the question wich way of writing is more efficient. Everyone says that you are going to need to know how to use technology when your older, but even then I still think people should have a choice.

Hey,
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading my blog. Much appreciated. Just wanted to be clear that I'm not saying we all can't still use paper and pen. They absolutely will have a role in the way we work and communicate in the future. But what I am saying is that we can't not teach our kids on computers any longer. They will not have a choice in their adult lives; they will have to understand how to create and communicate using digital technologies or they will fall behind those that can. We have to teach them to be fluent with technology.
