At the moment, I am avoiding doing my German homework on Moodle. If you aren't familiar with the Moodle website, allow me to summarize: Its a resource teachers use instead of handing out worksheets and writing things by hand. My German teacher, being the technology addict he is, uses this website or another one called wordchamp to teach a good portion of his class. I like technology as much or maybe a bit less than your average teenager, but at a certain point education starts to abuse technology in my eyes.
My math class has worksheets done and handed in on Moodle. My graphic design teacher uses Diigo and Ning to display and give us feed back on our work. Some English teachers use Moodle chat rooms instead of verbal class discussion. I regrettably understand that this is the direction our society is moving, but sometimes I miss the other way.
