New York Times : The Way We Live Now - Achieving Techno-Literacy

"But the computer was only one tool of many. Technology helped us learn, but it was not the medium of learning. It was summoned when needed. Technology is strange that way. Education, at least in the K-12 range, is more about child rearing than knowledge acquisition. And since child rearing is primarily about forming character, instilling values and cultivating habits, it may be the last area to be directly augmented by technology."~ Kevin Kelly

We must always remember that our technology is a tool.
