Agreed. For the generation currently in elementary and middle school, it will be interesting to observe in the next 10 years or so their ability to actually handwrite an essay or letter, to name a couple. So many schools, even for the youngest ages, are slowly evolving towards the complete use of technology for education--homework assignments, papers, forms, etc. I handwrite all posts and essays/papers before I type them, so I feel that something is lost in the gradual devaluation of a simple pen & paper.
