I just thought this was funny and thought I would share it with you all. It does bring up some issues that schools are dealing with now. One big problem in classrooms is the amount of cellphone usage within classes. Also, this instant gratification that has come about from technology is another issue that we as educators have to deal with. Since students are use to getting information quickly, it will make sitting in a class for 60 minutes listening to teachers drag on pretty unbearable. So it is important that we as teachers prevent distractions within the classroom and make sure that we are keeping our classes interesting and fast paced to keep the students interest.

  1. Sad, but true! Teenagers don't know how to accurately spell because they're so used to texting. It's really irritating.

  2. I totally agree, its sad but at the same time I want to laugh at the stupidity of the generations that follow us...what is even more horrible is the fact that we are the bridge generation, and we encourage this stupidity.
