Intrigued by this article. Realized how relevant it can be for education, and even in making certain government policies.

This is the study of Google+ showed that it is more popular with parents than students,  which could be a favorable indicator of how popular it is for those educators of the same generation.

Google+ can work for higher education.

Great resource page for IDs and ETs.

An entertaining and readable article on how to not only use e-learning in the classroom, but also how educators can help get parents involved in e-learning too.

The ultimate in e-learning affordance... can you imagine the potential for educators and students to be able to design and adapt their own physical user interfaces for normal computer apps?

A fascinating and visionary article written in the '70s about the DynaBook, a computer envisioned as a special educational tool to not just teach children facts, but to also make them more curious and more intentional in exploring their world and the knowledge available.  Some pundits today say that the iPad is, at long last, the realization of Kay's visionary DynaBook - more than thirty years later. Pretty heady and visionary, this article, even today. Do read it if you have the time.

An excellent code repository / version for all sorts of code - considered to be the "Facebook" of software programming. Contains many code recipes for iOS programming too. Perhaps the MD team could consider creating a free educational account with this?

A bliki is a cross between a blog and a wiki. It may be a much more suitable conceptual idea for an e-portfolio, especially the collaborative type for educational environments.

For MDs to take note.

Thanks! That's definitely a super big piece of good news for my team :)
