Techy Kids as teachers

So I recently read a blog post by an edu blogger that was so interesting... I loved it. She explained how she searched on youtube for videos explaining how to use programs such as ScreenFlow and IShowU. The great thing was that she found tutorials and explanations by kids who were in 7th and 8th grade! She included their videos on her page, and I could not believe how professional and knowledgeable these kids were. I think it is great that kids are doing this, especially because a lot of their teachers may not be able to. Some people made comments asking whether or not school seems important to kids if they can learn everything at home and teach themselves. I believe that it is. For example, if any of you have ever taken an online class you know that they are convenient and and efficient, though you lose that personal interaction that can help a lot. Therefore, it shouldn't be Internet OR school, but Internet AND school. Plus I would rather have kids that know what they are taking about teaching my students about technology, rather than myself who pretends she knows what she is talking about ;)
