The video “What If” matters to me because I am a student in a time where new technology is coming out really fast , to education because many people who were involved in education stated current crisis’s about progressing in education technologically, and to the world because this video shows how technology has grown.  The video “What If” was about how people predicted many problems that were going to come if students relied on a specific item.  Since I am a student in a place where technology is expanding, I can either choose to use it as good or bad, which Mr. Fisch discussed.  In the video, there were many examples of doubters who were a part of education.  For example, one made a strong point about students’ dependence on calculators.  He or she said that since we are so dependent on calculators, what happens when we will need them and don’t have access to one.  That argument has pretty much degraded because calculators are now on phones, iPods, computers, ect.  This means that calculators are very easy to access.  When I was watching this video, I was amazed at how much little time generated new technology and also new arguments in the world.  I wonder what I will see what the argument will be in 50 years or so.
