Literacy in the Digital Age

This article makes me really think about the children of today.  Are they getting the adequate amount of education using technology?  What about the schools that can't afford numerous computers, other programs, and other tools of technology?  Are these students then classified in an employers eye as lacking technology experience?  I personally love all the new technology in today's society, but I have to wonder, could these kids today survive in this world if something happened (economic depression, nuclear war, etc) and they had to survive the old basic ways of living?  Also, will all the technology advances today does it make the average person jobless because companies do not need a large number of employees do to the fact the computers, etc. are doing all the work?  

I enjoyed reading the lesson examples in this article.  The lessons really connected to the basic standards of learning and also made the students think at a higher level.
