Here in the UK, where we refer to educational technology as “ICT” (information and communication technology), you can make an instant hit with a non-teacher audience by standing on a stage and proclaiming that ICT lessons in schools are boring. Do you need any evidence to support such a statement? Well, yes, but you don’t have to look very far for it. Just say something along the lines of:

My son/daughter, who is 5 years old and was sending textbook messages as soon as s/he had emerged from the womb (to let everyone know they’d arrived), came home the other day and said their ICT lessons are boring.
