Videos

I watched and enjoyed all 4 videos from modules 8 and 9. The first one on "introducing the book" was my favorite and really funny. It's crazy to think how people deal with things related to this video, especially nowadays. We live in an era now where technology has taken over. It's funny to be around older people trying to use cell phones. Most of them have no idea how to use certain feature available with cell phones such as texting and taking picture, or even how to use voicemail.

The last video on special education and social networking was very insightful. I think it's important for children with special needs to have a purpose for their future. It gives them a way to learn at their own pace, be productive, and most importantly gives them a future. Some kids have great difficulties communicating with others in this fast paced world. Technology gives them that chance to communicate in their own way and at their own pace.

  1. I thought the same thing while watching the video called Intro to the Books. Most older people might have a difficult time adjusting to modern technology. Believe it or not but older people in my family still do not know how to text from their cell phones yet, even after numerous times of showing them.
