    Lots of information to drill into here.

    Awesome article. We had a software sales rep in our district the other day doing a presentation to our Admin group. While he was sharing, I looked up his product and company, and also tweeted an inquiry about others who use their product. I got some great information to help our decision, but felt a little guilty that he may have thought I wasn't attending fully to his message. I like to think that I filled in the gaps of his presentation.

    Thoughtful and pretty complete. Anyone have any additions? 
  • Curt Rees on 17 Dec 11
     
    That is a great list. We focused on the infrastructure and app management before we bought our cart of IPads, but didn't think much about the in class use. Our plan was to buy them, get them in the hands of the power users (kids and staff), and then work on the classroom use.

  • Learning is always personal, intimate, specific. Our discussions of the pros and cons of different kinds of learning have to be equally so. To settle for any less — in one direction or the other — is to shortchange one of the most important conversations we can be having right now.

  • My suspicion is that they know far more about this than we adults.
  • Never have the young shared so much, so often in so many different ways.
  • Teaching and lecturing are largely lone wolf activities in classrooms. Schools, colleges and Universities share little. Educational professionals are deeply suspicious of anything produced outside of their classroom or their institution.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Beware of big, abstract nouns.
  • When it comes to creativity, my own view is that the music, drama and other creative skills my own offspring have gained, have mostly been acquired outside of school.
  • Universities were failing badly on the three skills they studied; critical thinking, complex reasoning and communications
  • Across the Arab world young people have collaborated on Blogs, Twitter, Facebook and Youtube to bring down entire regimes. Not one of them has been on a digital literacy course.
  • Pushing rounded, sophisticated, informal skills into a square, subject-defined environment is not the answer.
  • Curt Rees on 13 Dec 11
     
    This is very thought-provoking, especially the section on collaboration.

  • Let’s be honest, by and large, we’re still preparing new teachers to be curriculum delivery specialists, not participants in and facilitators of deep student inquiry in the classroom.
  • I’d love to get rid of the factory side of education, not just do it better, but that’s a far off reality given the current climate.

  • Despite their claims, the corporate reformers have no proof that the harm of their tactics is outweighed by any good. They lied about their 90-90-90-90 schools. Now they’ve been caught lying about their continually improving schools. They have absolutely nothing.
