After reading this quote, answer the following question: Do you use computers In the way your future employers will require?  What kinds of experiences in high school could help you become more prepared?

"Your child shouldn't be spending much time on developing computer skills per se. Computers should be a natural part of teaching and learning subjects like science, social studies, and the three Rs (Reading, wRiting, aRithmetic). Employers now assume that applicants know how to use computers. What they care about is whether applicants can use computers to carry out effectively the problem-solving and complex communication tasks that technological advances have made more important." Frank Levy and Richard J. Murnane
