Do you ever think about how many people are illiterate when it comes to technology? I sure do. I see it more in older people they have trouble working with computers and cell phones especially. Just last week I talked to my grandpa who lives in Buchanan and he was telling me he is taking a class at some community college every Tuesday night to learn more about computers. They just got a new one so he decided to sign up for this class to learn something. It is equivelant to ITE 115 at Dabney. He told me that he finally found someone dumber than him about computers. He said that some guy picked the keyboard up and was moving it around and the teacher asked him what he was doing and he said that he was trying to get the pointer thing to click on the internet. So from that you understand that some people are illiterate towards technology.
I think that we as the younger generation are not so illiterate towards technology because we grew up with the changing in technology. I think that the older people have trouble because they grew up without it so they didn't need it when it came about. I still like that some old people are trying to keep up with technology.
