It would be very helpful as well if the organizations and foundations that run awareness campaigns were to institute community involvement programs featuring education. For the most part, people take an interest in the communities they live in. They attend and sponsor community-wide events and meetings, and they feel the need to have a say in what goes on. If the community were brought together for an event that involved technology, skeptics within the community may be persuaded to become involved. For instance, having a presentations and demonstrations at town hall and PTA meetings would be a great way to show parents in the community what technology can do for their children. |
