Double Entry 10

"Just as students need to engage in the creative thinking spiral to prepare for the Creative Society, educators and designers must do the same. We must imagine and create new educational strategies and technologies, share them with one another, and refine and extend them."

I agree with this statement strongly because I share the same outlook.  It is hard to imagine the school environment without books, for some.  This is the way of the future. It seems that the more resist the change of the future and the sooner we embrace technology in learning the sooner we will be able to move into the future of learning and further humanity.  Technology is changing so fast and it is permeating every part of our lives, it has essentially become our lives and education is not immune. The linked article furthers my argument because it states that not only are we rejecting new technology we are stifling students' ability to create and be innovative. This is more harmful and is farm worse than not doing anything.
