Video reflection- The machine is us

After having watched the video "The machine is us" it brings some different thoughts to mind.  How is the world changing with the web and with text?  You can get an idea across much quicker with a computer and typing than you can writing with your hand.  You can find information much faster.  Anyone can publish on the internet.  What does this mean to me as a future teacher?  Well to me it means a couple of things.  We need to teach our students how to find correct information on the web.  We need to teach them to realize that what they find on the web is not always true.  We need to teach them how to responsibly use the web.  The web is a great tool, but it is one that needs to be handled with great care and with knowledge of how to use it to find true information.
