[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not the biggest fan of all kids having iPads in school starting in kindergarten but it is the future and they need to be prepared. It's like when I was a kid and we had computers my parents didn't and they struggled when their jobs went high tech. [/quote] By "high tech," do you mean "had computers"? I do not understand why people think learning to use a computer is so complex and difficult.[/quote] How old are you? Perhaps not old enough to remember people losing their jobs in the 1970s and 1980s, as workplaces became computerized? [/quote] I'm 50. I learned to use punch cards in high school. Technology evolves rapidly, and the skills you learn are going to be obsolete in no time. You don't need to learn a particular skill in grade school to do a job when you get out of college. You need to learn to learn. [/quote]
