From chapter one I saw one quote or revolution that really stuck out to me, not only because I play music, but it was like a thorn in my spine. "What happens when you give a bad guitar paler a bigger amplifier?" (Ohler, 2008). This quote hits home with me. The digital revolution is just like a new set of tools for anyone. If you don't know how to use it, its still not gonna make you a better story teller or a better writer or better movie maker. In fact it may make you even worse! These days with technology now entering the classroom, teachers need to be caught up on current technology and at least know how to use technology that is being use by their students. Students want to see technology in the classroom because it will allow them to relate to what is being taught. If a teach is given this great tool to work with, but has no idea how to use it, do you think this will be the next michael bay film? NO! it will be garbage that no student will want to see. I know from experience! Giving someone a great tool does not mean they are going to be a great teacher. Lets teach our teachers these new technologies and bring the aging academic institution we call school how to use it and bring it into this century!
And Sometimes no Amp is even worse!
