A father was having a little father/daughter time, when he changed her life. It started out as a relationship builder and turned into a life altering event; not only for his daughter, but for the world. Dr. Chamberlain's class came along a story published by a father for his daughter and the next thing that was happening was that the father was skyping the class. It happened so fast, and so easily all thanks to the World Wide Web.
Then, the next thing I know is that it is affecting not only my life, but everyone in Dr. Strange's class because we comment to Dr. Chamberlain's class. The only thought I can manage to get out straight is that "it's a small world after all". Even though with technology it all happens so fast and so easy, it is important not to forget the bigger picture. As a senior in college I can communicate with a three year old across the world. Even though it may be a lot more interesting for the three year old I am still fascinated. Of course there are privacy issues that come into play, but at the same time think of the window of opportunities that father is opening for his daughter. If all teachers could do this very same thing for all of their students, the educational experience would reach it's greatest limit
