I loved the " Do you know" video that we viewed today in class, I may have it on repeat during conferences next year. I believe that we all realize that technology is moving at a rapid pace but when numbers are presented in a way that the video does, it seems staggering and overwhelming. Education is changing faster now than it ever has. I have to believe that steps are being taken to revamp the way that we are going to educate young people who want to go into education. The days of making college students take courses that really don't have anything to do with education have got to go away.

I also found pieces of the video to be overwhelming. The point that we receive more data from 1 week's worth of NY Times than previous generations would have received in a lifetime really spoke to me. It makes me wonder if there is any room left in our brains for education in a classroom setting if our brain is so full of data from the outside world? I definitely think teachers need help processing all of the new information on technology, and that leadership needs to come from the principal.
