Hello, I have watched the progress of technology in our country with great expectation. I too have been disappointed with the results. It would appear most advances have been redirected from tools of learning and efficacy to toys for distraction and escape from reality. The students are merely reflections of their teachers, who are too many times merely over aged children in a bureaucracy. What has happened to parental supervision? Shame on US!!!
sincerely,
Ted Miller
