technology illiterate

I believe Mr. Fisch hit the nail right on the head. A teacher is not preparing her kids for the future if she is not using technology in his/her classroom. Teachers should be using power points and email to keep in touch with students at the very least. Also blogs in traditional subjects is a good way to keep kids from falling behind.

For a teacher to not be educated on technology is completely unacceptable. If they didn't know anything about computers or cell phones, kids would just "my space" or email their friends during class, or text message the whole time. Technology is very important to being a good educator today, and that importance will only continue to build and leave stubborn educators behind.
