How did
*I* get involved in this conversation??
Actually, digital broadcasting
is the next big thing, broadly defined ...... The line between your TV
and your computer will disappear. (Between your cellphone, too
......
I know all the computers-are-bad-for-you-blah-blah-blah
arguments ...... Most of the stuff that was being marketed to schools was
snakeoil, and teachers and principals were under a great deal of pressure from
parents to purchase educational technology because it was perceived that
their children needed to "know computers" to survive in the world. This
might have been true, but the stuff they were selling back then was terrible.
The stuff they are selling today is much better, overall. The smart educator
in 1996 is the same smart educator today - use the computer as a
medium for research and _expression_, not for "math drills" or stupid
mindless games that are supposed to teach something.
UH, because 1) you're smart knowledgeable and insightful, or 2) was it
because you wore a lavender blouse and your blonde highlighted hair looked like
you had run your fingers through it repeatedly before your "Teachin" two Fridays
ago?
Probanbly #1!
Now tell us, how did you handle coloring your hair? ![]()
