Technology in the Education Arena

Becky writes about her conversation with a teacher and notes:

Carl is a modern-day Socrates. Yet, unlike Socrates, Carl appreciates the value of the written word and enjoys reading, among other things, blogs.  He believes that in this Age of Information Literacy we are morally obligated to teach the importance of integrity to our students, for knowledge can become evil in the hands of those who haven’t been taught to use it responsibly.

Well said Becky and Carl.  Being in an elementary school, I feel it is important to teach the students how they can be responsible users of the tools available to us today — before they do something that they will regret.
