I thought this blog was both funny and informative. Fisch uses Terry Freedmans blog to open his blog. Here are some quotes: "School inspectors who are technologically illiterate should be encouraged to find alternative employment,Schools, Universities and Teacher training courses who turn out students who are technologically illiterate should have their right to a licence and/or funding questioned, and we should stop being so nice. After all, we've got our qualifications and jobs, and we don't have the moral right to sit placidly on the sidelines whilst some educators are potentially jeopardising the chances of our youngsters."
Fisch later elaborates on Freedman's blog. He states that today's world is becoming more "tech" dependent. This would reflect that a student will have to learn technology as if it were a new language. It is imperative for a teacher to be able to teach this language. Fish agrees with this quote, If a teacher today is not technologically literate - and is unwilling to make the effort to learn more - it's equivalent to a teacher 30 years ago who didn't know how to read and write.
