Teachers have to be entertainers to catch the students attention.
A teacher who taught at a school for 30 years has seen the change of technology. Students use spark notes instead of actually reading.
Social impacts:
-By using more technology, you spend more time talking to people who are farther from you rather then talking to those who actually live with you.
Ex. you can use facebook to talk to far away friends but you loose touch with your own family
-By using soo much technology, people stop thinking for themselves and depend on technology to do the thinking for them
-A gap is built between people who know how to use technology from those who have no clue what it is. they can't communicate.
