This article has a lot of truth behind it. Technology is something that is constantly growing exponentially and if we do not keep up with all the changes, then the younger generations will continue to know more than their parents, teachers and mentors.
A challenge students and educators face today is knowing if what they have found on the internet is true or accurate. When we teach staff and students how to use the technology that has been given to them, they should be taught how to find valuable sources online as well. This would help the students when they do research online and help the teachers help the students find good sources when they are doing research. I also think that older generations should be open to the younger generations knowledge on technology since they know just as much as the older generations, if not more.
I am not sure how I feel about parents being able to watch and talk to their children while they are in a classroom. Parents were never sitting in on classes, and helping their children out while their children were in school, they were helping their children at home after school. However, if a parent would like to watch their child in the classroom, and see what they are doing throughout the day, I also agree that should be able to be done.
I think the big thing with technology now-a-days is having everyone work together learning all the different aspects of technology, from young to old.
