Mr. Winkle Wakes

Mr. Winkle Wakes was like watch a movie after attending a Grateful Dead concert. For me it just stated the obvious that just yes technology has improved over the past 100 years. It did not take a cartoon man to tell me that. The worst part to me was the way they bashed the education system. Yes computers are a very important part of today's education but they are not everything. I had rather have a great teacher who was able to communicate with me than a computer that just sits there and makes me pull information out of it. The other problem that the creators of this video forgot was the money it cost for computers to be put into the classroom. In today's world we cannot even pay our teachers who run the classroom. All in all I feel a the video was making fun of the education system as a whole saying it is outdated and in the way of computers.

  1. Mr. Winkle Wakes was indeed a very simple video. I do feel like there is not enough technologhy in the classrooms of the students that are suppose to be our future. Our society as a whole spends to much money on other things when they should pay teachers more and make sure computers are being put in classrooms. Our society needs to wake up and realize that without starting in the classroom we will fail as a nation.
