I was assigned Ms. Galloway a.k.a The Thinking Chick.
Magic Wand
She posted about things that have become obsolete to date and things that could be obsolete in 2020 (according to a list she referenced). She talked about how technology allows us to communicate without being in person, without being in the same general area, and without being bounded to a land line etc. She also commented on the list of things that was to be obsolete by 2020. She says that while some of these things may be possible to replace with technology schools are typically slow to transition into new technology. For example, just because we can use a computer to write doesn't mean we don't still find pencils and paper in classrooms.
I commented on how I agree that just because technology is available doesn't mean it is being utilized in schools. I agreed it would be nice to see the innovative educational tool, but the tools listed to be obsolete might still have a place in schools.
