Throughout this project, I want to focus on creating something that will strengthen the relationship between education and technology. Technology is advancing at such a speed, that younger generations can’t help but be immersed in it, one way or another. Therefore, the impact of technology on education is one that is both unavoidable, yet has potential to be incredibly momentous.

I believe that the way the current media, advertise and encourage young children to engage with technology, is at fault. A child’s development is crucial and elements of imagination and creativity need to be utilized frequently, in order for children to inherit the best possible outcome, during the early stages of their life. Spending copious amounts of time in front of an iPad isn’t healthy.

It is easy to come across as a hypocrite, when explaining that technology is potentially brainwashing younger generations and they should spend more times outdoors, playing with sticks and making mud pies.  However, in moderation and used in the appropriate way, technology can teach a magnitude of things, it can stimulate an active imagination and provide seamless amounts of fun.

In conclusion, I am currently in the research phase of deciding what I want to create, how and why. However, I am certain of following a route that allows digital media it’s rightful place within society, without being deemed dangerous and/or brainwashing, but a pedagogy.
