And the kids are supposed to be so much more tech savvy than adults!!!! We all have classic school stories in our repertoire. Here is one of mine. Student (looking confused): I can't get my word document to open here. I did it at home. Me (dreading the encounter): Where is your flash drive? Student: I don't have one. Me: Did you email the file? Student: No Me: Well - you can't open it if you don't have it with you at school. (we don't have home access) Student (exasperated): WHAT?! Our teacher said that if we saved our file as an rtf file we could open it ANYWHERE. Sigh.......
