It is amazing how our children nowadays quickly learn how to use ipods,phones and computers.. But reading their textbooks they have many excuses,its hard for them to understand the topic and how to answer the question even the simple mathematical problems.. Any advice for a parent like me to handle this kind of situation?...
Of course, it is so, because the technologies reduce the efforts and don't require so much diligence, so the attention span is not so long. I would recommend just integrate all these ipods etc into the educational process, because it's the future and we have to face it.
it may be a negative impact of technological developments.
but children can now learn faster through the means that exist in today.
so my idea is better in facilitation but directed to learn through the media.
