Summarize 2 Articles Discussed in class (part 2)

I agree with TIME they said kids should grow up with a mouse in their hand, and I don't mean they should be playing with one while they are barely leaning to crawl. If they agree to have children in Pre-K have a class in computers, they should also have a class where they learn to socialize as well. Just to have a truly balanced education. I also don't want my children to be freaking robots when they come home from kindergarten. Yes, it is vital to know how to work a computer in jobs today. And most just care about making money, even if they created a mass product for the world. They wouldn't settle. Another thing I'd like to add is we can always have more computer classes in schools if anyone ever had a problem with wiring schools to the internet. Our previous Vice President, Al Gore's question to all "Should Schools Be Wired To The Internet?" Kids will be smarter and will be more knowledgeable in government issues. Not only will they gain more knowledge, but they could share what they have learned. Sharing knowledge is important, communicating skills and writing skills will better throughout advance technology. Also, another point I would like to say is if the President can give auto makers loans which they obviously went in debt. Why couldn't he have used that money to provide for the future of our children. He could have used it for something more essential to Americas future. Why should schools have to pay, it's for the kids. In the article it pretty much states that poor kids are going to have less intelligence in schools because their communities can't afford technology. Those smart rich kids are not going to know how to survive on the streets because they've been babied all their lives! That is my pov. Sure technology is beneficial for a brighter, cleaner world it is going to take a lot of work.
My sociology class needs to be yanked out of the stone age. He is a lecture freak. The other day in class I wanted to yank the book from his hand and throw it at his head. And scream this is so boring, and uninteresting the way you are portraying information. The Article "How to Bring Our Schools Out of the 20th Century" says kids are global citizens now. We are, we get transfer students all the time in high school. I wish I knew more then one language, and I am not just talking about learning the bad words in Sign language and Spanish. It seems to me that people want kids to learn to download excessive amounts of information in very little time. Its possible, but when you practice something so much your other skills fall as you get better. We need to be universal, what is another word for robot? EQ is very important, I believe its more important than IQ. Communication, Money, Time and knowing where to put the Governments money is very important for our future. Maybe we should start thinking about getting better accountants for the president! Like world accountants.
