Students of Tomorrow

The students of tomorrow are going to be even more bombarded by technology and media than we are. More and more courses will be offered online, a big help to students who have difficulty attending a regular school but bad news for teachers who will be put out of jobs. As tools such as smart boards become more popular and accessable, chalkboards and textbooks will be on their way out. These things will benefit those who are technologically literate, but those who struggle with operating computers and other mechanics will not progress to their full capacity. As well, were some disaster to wipe out (temporarily or permanently) the technology being used, students would not be prepared or able to take care of themselves or continue their lives productively because of the reliance they will have built on computers, internet, and other techy gadgets. It's an inevitable disaster, it's just waiting to happen.
