The Future of Technical Literacy

The constantly changing technology environment is becoming increasingly difficult to teach to gradeschoolers. The children of today are accustomed to technological advances which are often only a few years old. Yet, paradoxically, children have greater access to technology than ever before; however, few understand how any of this technology works and how to explore it’s full potential. There is a need to create a dynamic curriculum which teaches technical literacy to children focused on development, coding and innovation.
