This reminds me of how ignorant most adults & teachers were back then about the internet. When I was in 10th grade (~1995) my high school had a new class called "U.S. History with Internet". Kudos to my school for trying to include the internet in the curriculum, but what it amounted to was 3 days a week of normal history class and 2 days spent in the computer lab. Ostensibly we were supposed to be doing history research on the internet, but of course we did anything but. The best part was they had the shop teacher teach for the internet days. He knew less about computers than most of us 15 year-olds. He'd slowly read directions off a paper - "Type in the U R L bar..." and we'd already be 5 steps ahead of him. My friend got in trouble for looking at homemade bongs, but the hilarious part is that the teacher was convinced he was actually looking up bomb making instructions and that "bong" was some sort of obfuscation. |
