The Touch Screen Generation
- zurn 14y agoI wonder how they will relate to keyboards and text input after they learn to read and program.
- joezydeco 14y agoMy daughter is turning 5 next month. Now that she knows the alphabet she is learning to read and use the keyboard at the same time. If something is spelled to her she can execute a Google image search on her own. She's teaching herself how to type because she has an awesome motivator. Type a word, get a flood of My Little Pony pictures. With moderation I let her do it when she asks, because I know this is getting her familiar with computers, with letters/words, with the keyboard, and with internet searching all at the same time. That's something I couldn't do if I sat her down and tried to do it formally.
