Why We Need To Teach Technology in School

what's the name of the musical background ?

I support an increase in the use of technology and technology training in our classrooms. Alas it seems impossible as the control is not with the teachers and is instead with the federal government.

My school uses the OLDEST technology there all about the money and saving it.. i hate it

Don't understand how this video gets 4 stars - its insipid, uninspiring, boring with platitudes from the equivalent of a sixth grade English essay played to an unsuitable musical score. Too many "We need..." statements and little subtance.

Its substance is quite that of a powerpoint presentation at a beginner level than a worthwhile video on youtube.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. I appreciate your honesty. I also take your comment as a sign that this video must have struck at least enough of a cord with you to provoke a reaction. I too often wonder why it gets so many stars, especially since it was the first video I ever posted to YouTube, one of the first videos I ever put together, and it was created in less than two hours one afternoon.

a change in font colour and music would make this a much better video, Most of your backgrounds are white and your pictures are bright so why use white font? and the music.. i dont know what to say.

exactly what i was thinking, good points, but really badly presented.

Next generation of kids is going to control construction equipment with EEG headsets and the teachers don't know how to text message. The singularity is near

I am forming a non profit foundation to provide technology, ESL and training for approximately 4000 poor children in 8 schools in India (Pilot program). I would love to embed this video in my website if you allow me.

embed it wherever you want

Good luck to you and your organization.
