Another morning, another day of running permanently behind schedule. I can feel mom shaking my shoulder, but nothing can raise me from this glorious slumber. Alas, the 8th grade was not the easiest, but I eventually opened my eyes to the morning sun and looked forward to my first day at the New School.
Although the Internet was a blessing for all, it has had the most effect on our education. Strictly speaking, the internet is a tool to teach. The thought behind it, in the early years of the internet’s creation, was akin to the way young children are best able to learn a second language while they are still developing and fully immersed. The Creators felt the same way about the Internet. The hubs of early technology centered in schools like the University of Minnesota and MIT always had a sense of ownership and even rights over the Internet.
