Plugged in - Concepts of Technology

After completing my first week of Concepts of Technology, I am feeling a little overwhelmed.  There is so much that I do not know and want so desperately to learn.  I wish I could be "plugged in" and "updated" as easily as my apps can.  Our kids are born in a different time....literally.  It is a time abuzz with electronics, gadgets, and a digital language that is vastly different from our own language.  How do  we keep up when we, the adults, are already behind?  How do we teach our kids to use technology in an ethical and safe way when they can access technology in ways that we can only aspire too?  I am inspired by my own boys and their ability to pick up a new phone and immediately, intuitively connect with it.  I'm awed by their ability to play a game and easily understand the controls and objectives.  I'm amazed at what they can do in their robotics class or their multimedia class.  Their generation is wired for a wireless world.  As overwhelming as it can be, I do look forward to learning all that I can in this class.
