Karl Fisch's Blog

Reading the post titled, Is It Okay To Be A Technologically Illiterate Teacher from Karl Fisch’s staff development blog for Arapahoe High School, I have mixed options about the statements that were made within this blog. There are a lot of teacher that have been teaching for a long period of time, that did not grow up using computers in the classroom everyday. In today's society it would be advantage to the students now days for every teacher to try and learn about the basic technology.

I believe that the older generations teachers think that it is okay not to know about the technology that is in today's society. They believe that they have done without it this long for teaching why try to learn and teach with it now. If a high school or college student does not know the means of using a computer they are going to have difficulties in school due to the fact a lot more material is presented through the computer than ever before. I do believe that students should start in the elementary school learning how to use programs on a computer. Between school and jobs somewhere along the line everyone will use a computer. So learning the basic of a computer I believe must be must within the school system.
