Technology Video


   
     I was watching the various videos called "Did you know?" and they made astounding comments. The cell phone today is a million times cheaper, 1000 times more powerful, and 100 thousand times smaller than the one computer at MIT in 1965. The average teenager in America texts 2,272 messages in a MONTH! Since Wikipedia launched in 2001, they have over 13 million articles in 200 Languages.  Most of our students today have never been without a remote control for their TV's. I don't know about you, but I clearly remember turning the channels with a knob and turning the it on and off with a knob.
     We cannot deny how technology affects the educational system and our students.       
Kevin Kelly talks of Technology
     This video discusses technology and what it is. Kevin Kelly states that Technology is something that we do not yet know. An interesting video.
