I read the September 2007 Blog by Karl Fisch and was amazed that so many teachers are so technolgically illiterate. I have always been told that your not a leader unless someone is following. How can one teach effectively and be a leader in today's technoligically advanced society if they can not even operate a computer? I realize there are ways around it, however this doesn't mean that its what is best.
I have children that are two and five years of age who already know how to play games on the computer, etc. There is something wrong with the picture when a five year old knows more about a computer than a teacher. My opinion is that if you choose to go into the teaching field it is an everlearning career. As teachers, we should want to advance in personal knowledge, not only for ourselves but for the future of the generation that is coming up.
