Going through the edutopia site today, I came across an article done on 10 students and the use of technology in the classroom. I was very impressed with the video done on Jalen, a 7th grader. At twelve years old, he is more versed in media design and technology use than I as a Instructional Design & Technology adult learner. Jalen displays a comfort level and interest that has inspired me. I guess he is a perfect example of students of the era of technology and what happens when you engage your child at a young age - he's been using computers since age three. I applaud his parents for giving Jalen the jumping board to excelerate to this level - It is clear that he has desire and drive that can take him further into the world of media creation.
Here is the site link http://www.edutopia.org/digital-generation-profile-jalen-video and the video below. Hope its interesting to you as well.
