Technology and School

I think that the use of technology at school is the best idea ever. It would be a great way to keep people in school and persuade them to not drop out. Technology is all around us. No matter what we say or do it's going to be there. I think that pretending it doesn't exist is the stupidest thing that someone can do. They might as well be saying I don't care what you do go ahead and cheat as long as it sounds nice I'll accept it. I also think that saying technology is bad and will lower kids grade averages and make them unsucessful in the real world is totally wrong as well. The real world is all technology now. evrything is run by computers which will evebtually be run by robots. This means that many of the jobs and skills that the anti-technology tyrants are trying to enforce will be worthless. I think that technology should be allowed in school. Many kids work better on computers then with pencil and paper. It would raise kids grades and still prepare them for the real world. It is a fact that teenagers are glued to any technological devices they can get their hands on. Even when you say no laptops, cell phones, or ban websites like facebook and sparknotes, kids find ways around them or are able to sneak them in and use them without being seen. I think that technology should be allowed in the school system because eventually the kids will win like them always do (ie. cell phone jamming incident out West). It's only a matter of time before all of this technology is allowed and then recommended to have.
