Mr. Doug Johnson has a very comical outlook on life and it shows in his writing style, especially his use of goofy metaphors. But he is absolutely correct in his assessments and uses of technology in the classroom. It is imperative that one always empower children to do what they do best and to try their best at the subjects that are harder. Using the resources at hand to make something you need is my forte, I wanted an remote controlled air-boat and the body cost around $80. I built my own out of blue-core foam and hot glue, and it cost about $4.

When I was growing up I believed on day I would have my own jet-pack and I'm still waiting. If you would like to read Mr. Johnsons list then click here.
