Pat's Book Cover

I chose this picture of a little boy watching TV to illustrate "Why Student's Don't Like School" because it illustrates how student's of all ages are connected to technology whether it be the television or a video game or any other form of modern technology. Today's student's have been connected to some form of technology since they were born and for us to have them in school without the use of technology seems to me to be fruitless. They are used to fast paced, on the spot action. When they start school, I feel, we are out of line to think we can keep them engaged without the use of well planned technology. Technology can not just be technology for the sake of technology, but to keep our student's engaged and motivated in ways never possible in years past.
