  • This was posted on the Abilene, Kansas High School Dialogue Buzz website. It was an anonymous post, but VERY powerful. Feel free to share this with educators, parents and stakeholders about 1:1 and the power of the seamless use of technology. It seems to sum it all up!!
     
     

     

    Let’s have a little competition at school and get ready for the future.
     I will use a laptop and you will use paper and pencil. Are you ready…?I will access up-to-date information – you have a textbook that is 5 years old.

     

    I will immediately know when I misspell a word – you have to wait until it’s graded.

     

    I will learn how to care for technology by using it – you will read about it.

     

    I will see math problems in 3D – you will do the odd problems.

     

    I will create artwork and poetry and share it with the world – you will share yours with the class.

     

    I will have 24/7 access – you have the entire class period.

     

    I will access the most dynamic information – yours will be printed and photocopied.

     

    I will communicate with leaders and experts using email – you will wait for Friday’s speaker.

     

    I will select my learning style – you will use the teacher’s favorite learning style.

     

    I will collaborate with my peers from around the world – you will collaborate with peers in your classroom.

     

    I will take my learning as far as I want – you must wait for the rest of the class.

     

    The cost of a laptop per year? – $250
     The cost of teacher and student training? – Expensive
     The cost of well educated US citizens and workforce? – Priceless
