The world is changing: GPS tracking

Today the US Supreme Court is hearing a case to decide if the police are allowed to put GPS tracking devices on cars to track people of interest without a warrant. NPR had an interesting version of the story this morning.

Although this may seem disconnected from middle school classrooms, it does point to the changing realities of life in the digital world. Not only should educators be aware of these types of issues, but we should help our students become aware of the potential uses of the devices they carry.
