  1. Very interesting video you've put there. I like the "father's" conclusion - we need to think about the way we teach our students and gradually adapt our teaching to their needs and ways.
    But one thing is certain, it's going to be much harder to keep up with the technology than it was 20 years ago as technology is developing much faster today.

    I'ts amazing to see how easily some kids handle those cell phones and other high-tech gadgets!

    Technology is here to stay, though. We have to find ways to catch up with all that!

    I think "curiosity" is key in this process, as the Asian little girl shows... :)
