  • they're not "designing and sharing information for global communities to meet a variety of purposes." Nor are they "building relationships with others to solve problems collaboratively and cross-culturally." And as far as "managing, analyzing and synthesizing multiple streams of information?"
  • National Council of Teachers of English feels a "literate person" should be able to do right now
  • If we don't talk about how learning is changing first, the schools we create will continue to be places of "tinkering on the edges" instead of truly changed spaces.

  • the reality for my kids and yours is that they are going to be immersed in these spaces, potentially connecting and learning with two billion strangers, required to make sense of huge flows of information and creating and sharing their knowledge with the world. That is their reality; it wasn't ours.

  • I have been noticing a lot more of our students are bringing their personal laptops to school. (I have not seen any netbooks yet, though.)

Education Week: Students Turn Their Cellphones On for Classroom Lessons - 0 views

  • New educational uses of cellphones are challenging the "turned off and out of sight" rules that many districts have adopted for student cellphones on campus.
  • A growing number of teachers, carefully navigating district policies and addressing their own concerns, are having students use their personal cellphones to make podcasts, take field notes, and organize their schedules and homework
  • "In our district, especially at high school, students have a cellphone on them at all times, just like a pencil—it's an underused too
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Podcasting and classroom-response systems are among the more than 100 uses of cellphones that educator Liz Kolb has collected, and in some cases invented, for her book Toys to Tools: Connecting Student Cell Phones to Education, published in October.
  • One key to the cellphone's usefulness is the wealth of Web-based services that have cropped up recently, not necessarily marketed for schools but generally free in their basic versions. "Of course, they all have premium upgrades, or if they don't have upgrades, you see ads," Ms. Kolb cautioned.
  • In addition, Web-based organizers are available to bail out disorganized adolescents. For example, Soshiku, a service launched in September 2008 by Montana 17-year-old Andrew Schaper, lets users log their school assignments via e-mail or text messages. Students, including partners in joint projects, can arrange to receive "assignment due" notices to their cellphones or e-mail accounts.
  • "Mobile citizen journalism" is another popular trend that schools can harness, Ms. Kolb said, though she did not know of any school newspapers doing it extensively yet. "Schools can definitely set up their own mobile journalism text-messaging numbers," so students who are traveling can phone in reports and images, especially if they find themselves in the midst of breaking news.
  • Even with standard cellphones, she said, educators must make sure that all students understand the price structure of their calling plans, including the number of text messages that they can send and receive at no additional charge.
