I loved the article by Prensky. I was a tuned out student (maybe just easily distracted). I love how it points out that with the internet, ipads and mobile phones the whole world is engaging...except school though. I feel like the baby boomer generation don't really understand today's reality (not all of them). They seem to think that it (school) was good enough for them so it should be good enough for kids now. I feel like older generation look at younger generations and see them as spoiled and lazy. But we don't use a slate anymore and every job in the future will involve computers somehow so it is the educators job to provide the skills. !!!
