Toward a new future of whatever

Michael Wesch


Toward a New Future of whatever

Dr. Wesch started his video talking about by talking about you tube and how it has influnced people to upload silly videos. And how students are being coming less interseted with school. It's becoming harder for teachers to keep kids attentions with other things out in the media like American Idol shows instead of shows that they are going to learn something from.
I think that it is going to be a lot harder for new teachers to keep kids attentions with technology becoming where you can take it with you where ever you go. I'm not saying that technology is a bad thing but some students if they have a computer in front of them at school. Chances are they are not really listening to the lecture that much. There doing something else.
Like playing cards or on a website looking at things. I think as technology gets more advance its going to be a lot harder to keep kids attention. Then it was when you couldn't bring your computer with you to class much less get on the internet.
