You are a new generation of students who has a greater responsibility in the world than any other generation previous. In addition, you now have more tools than any generation before you. Here is how they're developing.




Respond to this video and consider how technology is changing the world. Also, as students, what do you envision schools could do to help you prepare for these great changes in the twenty-first century?

Do you think you might be more excited to perform tasks and assignments for school. If so, why? If not, why not?

Please respond by posting your name in the comment section. In addition, remember to be specific and support your ideas with examples.
