      Are they talking about a keyboard such as one on a smartphone or iPad? Not sure...

    • Peggy Beal
       
      Traditional reference areas were to assure that references were available for students doing research in the library. Research & reference materials are readily available online.

      I think this is important to remind teachers
    • Shelly Eaton
       
      I think that teachers need to realize that phones are not "BAD" that they are devices they can teach with. I think that in 5 years they will be using them in the classroom not taking them from them.

      I am thinking that we, in Central, are already moving in this direction...
  • teachers today must learn, too
    • Anne Strayer
       
      Teachers are uneasy about more "new stuff" for them to learn and implement.
  • They’re thinking about information, making choices and executing skills — as opposed to a typical teacher-led lesson where even the best and brightest might sit in silence. More so than ever before, students are in a position to define their goals, make their own decisions and evaluate their progress.
