Thank you so very much for sharing this heart-warming video. It speaks volumes for our children. Their visions are determined by the teachers and facilitators who they are entrusted to Monday-Friday. Technology is one aspect that opens closed doors for so many of our children. The more technologially equipped they are, the better their chances are for succeeding. Being a student at UWA in this class has shown me a broader realm of all of the technologies out there that were unknown to me. That's what we have to do as teachers, provide our students with a gourmet meal of leaning rather than an sandwich.
