1. Why do you believe that technology is such an essential learning tool in the classroom?
- As someone that grew up in a time where technology hadn't quite made its grand appearance in schools, it is often hard to understand why it is so necessary. I attended school for 7 hours a day and the most technology I ever saw was a PowerPoint or a video. If I and all the other students I graduated with were able to succeed without a drastic use of technology, then why is it so essential to today's youth?
2. If the technological tools that you have dedicated your time to did not exist, what do you think you would be doing today?
- Just 20 years ago, the average person did not have a computer in their house. If even one thing had gone differently in history, we may not have had the types of technological tools that we have today, in which case, we would be living in a VERY different world. That being said, technology, as a career, is an extremely unique one, so it would be interesting to know what else Will Richardson is passionate about and could have made a future with.
