The Gee article

i Agree with many things that was written in the article. Technology is advancing in a way to help students to learn. Its difficult to grab a child attention to want them to learn if is not fun or interesting. A example is a toy that has has cartoon reading with a pen that has the cartoon characters voices reading it. i seen that game recently in the commercial and another game was a little bicycle n a child rides it and along the way solves math problems. I think if I had toys like this at home I would be doing a whole lot more learning . I started to play puzzle games and word games i honestly don't like it because i cant get it right away i do like trivia games because i feel more comfortable playing it. to let children's pick their curriculum it depend what age level we are letting student pick there classes reason why is because if they are two young they just might pick classes they already know and are comfortable and would not like to learn something new. the older children might be a little bit more level headed n they should be allowed to pick the classes they want to learn. When I was in High School i picked the law program that was the only class i could pick on my own and at first i hated the program after i was in it but after 3 weeks i started hitting the books and i loved it so it all depend what grade a person is in to pick the classes they would like.
