I am taking an online class called 'History of Television.' And in the discussion board, someone sent me a link to this: The Decade According to 9-year-olds.
While listening to it, because it is basically a slide show. I reflect on my history of 30 years, and the questions that were asked were like: When was the first time you touched a computer? For me it was 5 years old. Now it is 2 years old. Other questions were, "Have you heard this song: Baby One More Time by Britney Spears?" "Have you ever heard this sound: Dial Up?" "What is the biggest news of your life time?" Most of them said the death of Michael Jackson, also they said he was the biggest celebrity.
I always say to myself when I have kids, that I will try and educate them on the history that I lived through and that my parents and grandparents lived through. I am part of a generation that knew what analog was, todays generation only knows digital.
