Kay and Goldberg

i thought it was interesting how heavily involved children were with the development of the Dynabook and other somewhat mobile media devices. Today i feel like children are more or less ignored technologically unless they are having toys marketed to them. This creative technology could be used to help kids who don't learn in a conventional way due to neurological or sensory issues. While i have indeed noticed the movement away from face to face interaction i do not believe this to be a bad thing. I don't believe the development of technology is going to bring the foundation of humanity and being human crashing down on itself. I do however marvel at how far we've come just in the past 20 years in developing mobile media even if it's only for consumption and not so much creation.
