I want to try this project - or at least a version of it. Seems to be ripe with possibilities for incorporating a multitude of 2.0 tools (audacity, voicethread) and hardware (MP3 players, cell phones, etc.)

Watch the trailer for this documentary. These kids force us to question some basic assumptions we might have about the nature of knowledge and learning. My initial reaction was that this was a hippy school with its steeple stuck in the clouds, but after watching the trailer I feel angry what my own educational experience neglected and guilty for what I'm denying my students.

A four part (four hour) podcast on the future. Solid in-depth interviews with some famous and some obscure "experts". The first part on computers looks at Negroponte's laptop program in Africa, mash-ups, and the future of robotics.
Research on Voice Recognition Software - 0 views

Decent ERIC article on the use of voice recognition software for students with learning disabilities. I have felt for some time that as the software improves with ease of use and accuracy, more and more students may choose to compose their traditional academic essays using VRS.

My department is considering using this software - primarily for its ability to ensure originality in compositions, but I'm also fascinated how it can be used to track progress, supply paperless feedback, and nurture collaboration.
Many Eyes: About - 0 views

Very cool site which allows you to upload data, text, spreadsheets, stats, etc. and visually present them in a new and different way - a way which "democratizes" data analysis so it is more social and collaborative in nature. The result allows us to detect new patterns in the information. It can be a way to jumpstart discussion and insight.

An overview of siftables, dominoe-sized mini-computers which interact with each other. The idea seems ripe for instructional use. I actually had my students practice persuasion by presenting practical applications (and a marketing plan) for them.
