Humble book loses shelf life

When reading from Carmel's Learning technologies i decided to share my response to a sydney morning hearld article she posted about the changing nature of technology on english class. English and the study of it in australia is crucial and fundamental to the curriculum. It is the only subject that students are required to do from kindergarten all the way through to year 12, that alone speaks of its value. ''English is not a subject that stands still," and we as teachers can acknowledge this and foster a greater sense of independence and leadership in students that might not choose to lead in a traditional classroom setting. We breakdown barrier by using technology and  enable students to grow and self directed in their learning. This is important across all subjects but especially in english.
