Editor's Notes
- #24 Today, we have 100,000,000 Columbus libraries in our pockets! Technology and the web force us to redefine what being educated looks like. And it blows my mind that no one is freaking out about this! So why does my son’s class look exactly that same as it did 100 years ago when I was in 7th grade? We even have the same policies; the technology has changed but not the restrictions. I had to take off my Casio calculator watch and my son has to check in his iPhone.
