Modern LifeModern life is Rubbish, suggested Damian Allbran of Pulp
He might have had a point. What was better about the good old days, or conversely do you believe the modern world to be the zenith of civilisation?

30 years ago....................computing was in its (relative) infancy, and I was struggling to teach BASIC. Kids today aren't thicker, they're educated differently, to reflect the needs of employers. The kids I assess going into teaching aren't thick - they're bright, young, articulate and motivated. They're also pretty damn' smart. They're preparing to teach in an ICT literate world with different expectations, not lower ones. Different!
Sadly the view that modern kids are rubbish prevails with a fair percentage of the Good Old days brigade.
Heigh ho!
