I was reading some articles on Engadget, and I couldn’t help but relate them to my reading on educational access. There was articles on X-Box, I-Pods, Wii Vertual Console, Colbot Blue Nintendo DS, and the list goes on and on. This is what our children know and they work with everyday. Think of how far technology has come since we were little–it is unbelievable. My husband plays these games and everytime a new system comes out, he goes and buys it. It seems crazy to me, but it happens.

On educational access, I was thinking of how many types of games and entertainment systems that are available for purchase. Does this mean that every child has all of these systems? Of course not. Think of the diversity among children. There are some children that may be lucky to have on of the systems while others may have quite a few. Nonetheless, there are different degrees of access and this goes the same for children and up-to-date technological access.
