Rian's thoughts on week 1

Information technology is not a subject that I have eagerly seeked out to read about. I find the language boring and hard to get through. However, much of what I read this week, I agree with. It is difficult to find an elementary school where there is much teaching going on about information technology, or information literacy. Even as you get into the secondary levels, the only students required to take the classes that may teach them about information are those students who are looking to that field for their futures. And although I agree that it still can be boring to learn about, or difficult to read, there are some interesting aspects of it that I feel should be taught to all students at all levels.
