Prompt #1

The YouTube videos, "Did You Know" and "Pay Attention" both grabbed the audiences attention quickly. Using facts to draw in the audience about how technology is used in our society and culture. "Did You Know" makes a statement saying "India has more honors kids than America has kids". This really hit me hard, to think that all the education and learning I have done doesn't even compare to the students in India. Technology has had a major impact on American society and popular culture. Technology allows for students to create more effectively and for educators to teach more effectively. Since there is so much more technology used in the classroom, students are becoming Digital Learners. The technology in our society and culture is shaping the American education, enhancing it and making technology a center of instruction in the classroom.
