Alma Mater

It was cool for me to get to return to my alma mater and observe some of the teacher I took classes from - this time with a much different perspective and attitude. One thing that really stuck out to me was something that my old drafting teacher said to me - he showed me the 3-D printer the district had bought for the school and some of the stuff they had made and then said: "That's why it's fun to teach technology . . . There's always something new, it's always changing - you're not stuck with some textbook for 5 years . . . Every workshop you go to they're trying to get you to buy something new and implement it at the school."
I think that's why I would like technology over something else - it's always changing, there's always more to learn, more to do, and you never get stagnant - at least you know if you do get stagnant that there's a problem.
