Technology is an extension of our capacity to accomplish our will. We are willing to sacriﬁce long term gain for the
sake of littisfaction.
This is affecting our capacity to focus and be present in the moment.

Modeling

Nobody is modeling

Here’s what adults think about youth and technology: Narcissistic, buried in screens instead of interacting with the
world, ignoring even closest friends

Is technology being modeled in the classroom?

We have to model to show them the way, if we don’t they can become quite frustrated.
Schools do not operate like the real world or how we operate.

Not about technology
You can have all the tools you want, but it is all a waste unless it is being utilized. It comes down to people.

As far as technology goes, it needs to be more widely used in the
classroom. As a high school student, we have all these great iPads
but we're still taking notes in notebooks and getting paper
handouts and lugging around these giant textbooks. It seems like
we're not using them to their full potential. In middle school, I feel
like we had really nice computers but really only used them in
science to use Excel and etc or to make PowerPoints, which are
also fast approaching their expiration date it seems. Because we
are living in the information age, it feels like we should be moving
toward using technology more because the outside world uses it
more. Teachers will need to control it, mostly because of social
media (I find myself checking feeds of various sorts during
lectures, can't help it), but once that's done I feel like technology is
40
a valuable asset.

• Why is there a state of fear in
education in regards to technology?

new ideas and tools?
