  • The current jobs the majority of my friends are working at didn't exist as occupations when I was in high school. Should a child be lugging around five textbooks in a backpack that's causing them spinal disc herniation or does an iPad not only enable them to have a lighter load, but the ability - when used properly - to also create, collaborate and engage more with their peers.
  • I would argue that it's not an all-or-nothing proposition
