Hey Moron
While watching Don Tapscott’s “Hey Moron” video, my initial reaction was very similar to that of my peers. I was shocked- and slightly offended- that Mr. Tapscott, an educated, well respected man, would have the audacity to call an entire generation stupid. In retrospect, I realize that he only said these things to get our attention. However, there is a grain of truth in what he said. As a generation, we are very different. Technology has completely invaded our lives like never before, which…See More

Don Tapscott's NetGeneration
It’s amazing to see some of the things that we take for granted. Growing up with technology all of my life, I never really appreciated its incredible development until some product was innovated in some way. Soon enough, the “new” product would become old and outdated, and I, along with my peers, would cease to be amazed and just wait for the next best thing. What was once a step forward in our culture became an outdated piece of machinery- junk. We took it for…See More

"Hi Rachel! My name is Amanda. I'm a sophomore and the assistant project manager for gesture based computing. I LOVE to read, write, swim, and play the piano (though I can't say I am very good at it). I look forward to working with you."

"Awesome! I guess I'm kind of a book snob too- I tend to avoid some of the modern teen fiction... I usually just read the classics! My favorite book is The Picture of Dorian Gray. I also LOVE everything Jane Austen!"

Student LeaderKyle Schneider said… Hey Amanda. I'm Kyle, a Senior at Palisades High School, and the Project manager for Gesture Based Computing. I read your blog post, and instantly realized that you're a person who truly see's the world as it is. I'm not saying that's bad at all, in fact most of my music is based on just that. I'm simply stating it's a bit of a change from the other people on this project, and whom I've surrounded myself with lately. Regardless, (granted our hobbies seem to be opposites) your views are almost dead on in my perspective, and I look forward to working with you as an assistant manager on our project.

Hello! I'll read almost anything as long as it's well written. I can be a bit of a snob about that sometimes. Do you have anything to recomend? I look forward to working with you as well.
