In 10 years kids won't be using back packs to carry books, they will have ipods. What is wrong with efficiency? Is it better to wash dishes by hand than use a dishwasher? Seems to me the complainers about technology here are those who refuse to change with the wind . . we will let you remain ignorant in your own personal struggle, while the rest of us soar with the eagles in peace and equality.

"You don't need the book"?

How retarded, I'm 17, a student, and with such an attitude I would end up working in Tescos....

Does this mean we don't need to spend money on textbooks anymore? How do teachers assess learning with digital media? There is learning going on. The students teach the teachers.

Great video that really demonstrates how student are influence by and learning with digital media.

although the students interviewed are north-Americans, in many parts of the world, the same questions are imposed to teachers. How can we adapt to the Digital Revolution?
