  • “So, what knowledge do you possess that a 16 year old kid couldn’t look up on Google?”
  • Synthesis. Application. Problem solving. Sound familiar? 21st Century learning skills.

  • I think more people are twittering than reading RSS, particularly the blogging type. There are lot of people adding us all to their RSS readers for the sake of having an RSS reader but not really to converse.

  • And where would newbies find these seminal posts?
