Regaining some perspective | TechTicker - 0 views

  • I also sometimes wonder what role – if any – that the writing process (blogging) has played in this. This is hardly to suggest that blogging makes you a radical. However through ongoing reflection and exploration of ideas, I think it can solidify and sharpen existing opinions, and take what may have once been only the seeds of thought and grow them into something far more substantial.
  • In some regards the topic of education is just as contentious as that of politics, and all too easy to become divided by false or artificial delineations.  If we’re going to start to make progress and bring learning and teaching into the 21st century I think the best, most effective, and sustainable way to achieve this is to do it together.

  • Ms. Kim once wrote about how the resident advising system was making it impossible for her to move out of her housing — expressing enough irritation that the housing office requested that the admissions office take her post down. Officials refused, instead having the housing office post a rebuttal of her accusations; eventually, the system was changed.

The Philosophy of Edtech Loose Constructionism | TechTicker - 5 views

  • The view that experimentation is bad; that mistakes are a pox to be ashamed of, rather than opportunities for learning and re-evaluation; that unique approaches are a thing to be scoffed at – these are all shortsighted views that need to be cut out from the root.
  • Subverting the dominant paradigm should be job one for educators anyway.
