PLN17


In the video “What If” by Carl Fisch, there was a lot questioning about the average students capabilities and knowledge. Some of these things are “Multiplying three digit numbers by three digit numbers without a calculator.” Also, depending on ink, and other things. I think if we had listened, there would not be very many convenient things today. All the things we have today are very helpful and are not used to cheat the system but to make life easier. Such as a ballpoint pen. We don’t need to make our own ink because we already have it made in our pens. Also the use of calculators. People don’t need to know how to multiply three digit numbers by three digit numbers because they can get the answer faster by putting it in a calculator. Overall, I do not think it is right to questions capabilities and knowledge.
