09/12/08 Teachers Technologically Illiterate????

Is teachers being technologically illiterate today the same as not being able to read 30 years ago the same? I think so. I completely agree with this blog; the students that we are teaching now and in the future will be technologically advanced. This phenomenon is not slowing down, it is growing exponentially. I agree that we can't wait for tech illiterate teachers to decide to catch up. This will have to be something that these teachers are forced to do or lose their certifications.
Yes, I also agree that teachers have way too much on their plate, but if teachers are not capable of providing students with what they need in life to be successful then they are not doing their job. Basically it is time for tech illiterate teachers and administrators to change their stinkin' thinkin'!
