Internet Essential to School?


This video was very interesting because in it Henry Jenkins talks about how important technology more specifically the internet is for students education. In class we talked about all the sites that were blocked in middle schools or in high schools and this leads perfectly into this video. He talks about how it is important to not block things from students because the internet will be involved in every part of their lives after school and they need to learn how to work it in school. He says that the most shocking thing that is blocked to him is YouTube. He says that teachers are afraid to use the internet because they think they will lose control of the classroom.
