Learning Theories

Been reading through learning theories on the article on the new Eighth Multiple Intelligence. It was interesting to know how today the multiple intelligences focus heavily on technology to implement and enhances the Naturalist Intelligence. I came across information relating to technology based learning in order to connect with the new “Internet Age”. It made me wonder for a while about how technology is changing the world we know, replacing human interaction in the natural world with a new virtual world. It is surprising to see the amount of young children today who rely so heavily on electronic equipment in everyday situations wether it is an essential item or not. I haven't really considered the effects of multimedia technolgy on human development until reading through some of these articles. Now I have gained an awareness of this increasing issue, and it is something to consider throughout the future.
