I found this clip looking for something educational but decided to go with this one as I am very slow at keeping up with technology. Some of you will need to close your mouths after viewing this!

Hi Emma, thanks a lot for posting this video, it's excellent! I think the main thing this highlights to me is that technology is developing and changing so rapidly that as we have been reading in our course notes, many of the jobs are students will be doing when they leave school will be ones that don't exist yet for companies that haven't been created yet! We really need to find ways to keep up with technology as teachers so we can help our students make the most of what is available to them.

Hi Emma,
ReplyDeleteNice clip. I am impressed by some of the statistics used in this clip. A lot of people I know are already using phones and Ipods for internet use. Carolyne made an interesting point of the fact we are teaching students skills to prepare them for jobs which currently do not exist. Therefore as teachers we need to keep up to date with technologies as much as possible and use them wherever possible within the classroom to give the students the best chance to learn these technologies that are going to be important to them in their future jobs.
