Productive and responsible technology use will often involve getting good help.
In a nutshell, “know-it-alls” have a penchant for making things more complicated than they need to be (in order to feed their egos 🧐) whereas “well-meaning jackasses” tend to oversimplify technology-related tasks and projects that require some thought and planning.
Samantha’s project for example, called for a combination of hardware, apps and online services.
This is an alternate version of the illustration that appears in book number 12 of the Technology Skills for Kids picture book series (“Rory the Writer and other stories”).
NOTE: The well-meaning jackass was removed from the illustration that appears in the book and Mike the Wizard (the scribe of the Tech Skills for Kids picture books) asked the artist (Alla Martynova) to change Tech Wizard Mike’s outfit in the illustration to something less cool and trendy.

Here are the books…
