I Love Technology! But It Is NOT Always The Best Way…

I’ve spent thirty years exploring every aspect of what technology can do and more specifically how it can make learning better in my classrooms. I’ve come to believe though…there are times that today’s technology can not beat the communication modes of years gone by. When was the last time you held and cried over an email that meant so much to you that you actually saved it and put it in your scrapbook or hope chest. When was the last time you tweeted of posted on Facebook and it even came to your mind a day later let alone months or years later? I’ve posted a PowerPoint here that shows why I write these statements. It shows a cherished letter from 1955 that I’ve held onto for 54 years. I love to hold it, smell it and remember my mom and dad. The technology of 1955…letter writing is almost a lost art. That is sad!
