We live in a pregnant era. Anticipation of the newest computer, printer, or software runs high. Arrival brings a rush of enthusiasm. We test each possibility. There is pride in the success these tools bring to our students.
Technology is part of our blood.
We feel the pulse of the Information Age. Unfortunately, we are a minority in education. The instructional materials and methods commonly in use with students are a hundred years old, in some respects, a thousand years old. Our educational system, inert to change, regards these traditional methods appropriate for our time. We live and work in transition between the Industrial Age and the birth of the Information Age.
