The World Motivation
I think when I graduated from my high school in '84, they were just bringing computers in. I don't even know if they were for classes. They might have just been for the administration. It was nowhere on the radar for anybody that I know.

Justine Bateman reflects on her educational experience during a time when computers were just beginning to emerge in schools, emphasizing a lack of awareness regarding their potential use in classrooms. This observation highlights the slow integration of technology into education and the underestimation of computers as essential tools for learning and development.
For instance, a modern student today may take for granted the availability of computers for research and collaborative work, something that was not on the radar for many in the 1980s. Bateman's reflection encourages a recognition of the transformative role technology has played in shaping educational practices and access to information.
