   I think I’ll save up for a computer that can replace me, while I go on vacation!

   I liked that a lot. I feel like it is something that my students would enjoy as well. I need to find a way to incorporate it.

     Yeah! This would be great to incorporate into a class – or even just have a short class at the beginning of the year about the passing of time (history, duh) and how technology – math and science – have changed things for their generation. It might be humbling for them. They need to know what kind of age they’re living in and how exponentially quickly it’s growing.

       Completely agree! Especially the math and science part. It is these students who are going to be leading us in new paths in technology real soon. They are exceptionally gifted students.

   When I lived in the USA (1990-97) Americans knew little about the rest of the world. This has changed quite a bit thanks to the internet. – How will we keep pace with the technology? Well, we will get even more specialized. – Computers have to be replaced with new ones faster and faster, while we will live longer.
