For this week's email, I wanted to discuss how the world our kids are growing up in, right now, this very minute, is so different from what we experienced as children. When one stops and thinks of it, the iPad was just released in 2010. That is just 4 years ago! Now, according to a 2013 study, teen-agers spend an average of 6 hours a day on-line!!!
As Bob Dylan says; "The times they are a changin' " and we as educators must cope with that change. HOW we do it is all up to us.
Below is a great article from Forbes that talks about this topic. Give it a read and let me know what you think.
As always, please feel free to share this email with others and your comments are solicited.
Regards....
