    I belong to a gooele group on e_portfolios. http://groups.google.com/group/k12eportfolios/topics?pli=1 This site was posted as an example of a middle school using Google for their digital portfolios.

Empowerment With Technology - Room for Debate - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  • Don't waste money on hardware that will quickly become outdated or dubious learning software peddled by opportunistic vendors. Instead, build a 21st century information infrastructure that gives teachers real-time feedback on how students are progressing in and out of the classroom — not just on standardized tests, but also a whole range of health, social and developmental outcomes.

What do the best classrooms in the world look like? - By Amanda Ripley - Slate Magazine - 1 views

  •  
    Good for us all to think about.  And good to know about an article like this.  I'm seeing a little backlash against "technology"  like this in various articles.  I'll try to gather them up.  
  •  
    Thanks for sharing this, Rhys. I agree -- this is an important article for all of us to read.
  •  
    Wow, what an interesting perspective. I'm inclined to believe some of those high-performing schools are excelling *despite* the lack of technology, but I definitely sensed the author's bias here...it almost seemed like she wanted to prove that 'fancy equipment' detracts from real learning.
