Photo Arts

Do students need an analogue base to slow down and think about the Photographic?
Or - is it us that understand the analogue and have knowledge of a photographic practice that keep this belief alive?
I believe they can learn to develop a photographic practice using today's technology and tools.
What is necessary to understand the art and craft of the image?
