When I was a kid it was kind of strange to even use computers in a school. It’s amazing how far technology has advanced now. I couldn’t imagine having my teacher using apps to help us learn. I think it will be really interesting to see the way things are when my kids are in school and learning. It could definitely make a huge difference in the learning.
