State Representative Mark Spreitzer says U.S. Senator Ron Johnson has it all wrong when it comes to technology in the classroom.

Johnson recently suggested students might be better off with a quality D-V-D than a teacher who lacks expert knowledge in a field.

The Democratic lawmaker says Republican U-S Senator Ron Johnson’s recent suggestion turns a blind eye to what education is really about.

Spreitzer says the critical thinking that education offers is a keystone to our democracy.

Spreitzer argues only teachers can provide students with critical thinking and life skills, however, he agrees technology can play a positive role.

Spreitzer says we must look at creative solutions to reduce education costs and increase learning.
