How has technology changed over the last 5 years Touch screens have been around for a long time, but in the last five years, mass production of effective and easy-to-use screens that respond to multiple-points-of-contact have resulted in costs that are affordable to the end user. They are finding use in a range of personal electronic products, facilitating control of a multitude of devices without sacrificing screen-space for external buttons, and innovating the way in which we interact with electronic systems - especially coupled with accelerometers, magnetometers, visual sensors, gravimeters, GPS, etc., etc. ... In some countries (the UK for instance), new, ultra-fast, low-latency optical fibre networks are being deployed that remove many of the restrictions and bottlenecks that plagued previous systems. On that score, the sheer level of smart, internet-connected technology that consumers have access to is mind-blowing.

It may be because I imagine parents plopping their children in front of a PC and only allowing them to play games that involve solving math problems or answering science questions. The torture! However, I was from a generation where even though I was an “A” student, when I returned home I’d immediately race to the computer and fire up the game Ultima for an evening of medieval adventure. With that said, I do feel that today parents have a far greater selection of fun games or sites that are also educational and won’t bore your poor kid to death.
