Quotes:
In my day (we won't dwell on when that was), we were trained to be writers, crafting term papers out of mountains of text. A picture was neither expected nor necessary.
Reaction:
The world has changed beyond recognition. We, as 21st multimedia-based educators, no longer use most of the things that we focused so much a decade ago. Blackboard, for instance, can be hardly found around, for it has been replaced by a projector, which is definitely more qualified in digital classrooms. Another change in Education field is that students are asked to do assignments not in their notebooks but in their laptops or desktops which requires higher creativeness. This creativeness, in my and this author's point of view, is based on art. Some of the teachers are not confident and knowledgeable enough to guide their students to accomplish their multimedia projects that they have not accustomed to yet. To some extent, however, as the development of the quick pace of our technology, this kind of text-based education form would be abolished sooner or later. Since our students need a qualified multimedia classroom teacher, who is able to use digital technology, we must be prepared for the challenges in our teaching as an artist.
