the world is flat

              In the world is flat movie, my reaction was very surprised. I was most surprised on how the global econmic playing field was being leveled. Everyone says that china is ahead of us by 20 years but there saying the world is flat. and i think its amazing on how the world could change over 10 years. About the internet browser and how we work more with computers now and how we interact with each other. There's one thing i dont understand though which is the iron rule of business how could it be done to you?

               the flat class room expanding through fiber optic, what is fiber optics? the world is becoming more vertical then horizontal, does that mean the playing field is even for everyone. so does that mean when people start a new job, the people that have been working there for a long time dont have any power over  them because basically they have the same education? i do like how he said if we dont change our leaders then our global economy wont change, then we will be stuck in the 20 th century.


                the flat class room project some what scares me in a way. one of the main reason is because what if i find a kid that doesnt speak any english. i am excited to learn about other countries and how there day to day lives are different from mine. i am just mostly worried about the speaking aspect of it then anything.  what is our goal of the flat class room project as well?
