This document presents quotes from various educational organizations over different time periods complaining about students' dependence on new technologies for learning. The quotes progress from the 1700s bemoaning students' reliance on slates instead of memorization, to the 1900s complaining about pens and ink, to the 1950s criticizing disposable ballpoint pens. A 1985 quote laments handheld calculators. The concluding paragraph notes we still use pens, pencils and calculators, and now computers, and that changes will always face criticism.
