"The iPad revolution in academia isn't coming. It's already here .. The school district in question has just purchased 26,000 iPads, each of which will be distributed to students in the classroom beginning at the end of this summer as the new school year begins. Although San Diego isn't the first place where this sort of thing has been done, it's never been done bigger anywhere else."

It is time to abandon the status quo of test-based accountability and seek fresh and innovative thinking to support and strengthen our nation's schools.

"If the right-wing billionaires and apostles of corporate power have their way, public schools will become "dead zones of the imagination," reduced to anti-public spaces that wage an assault on critical thinking, civic literacy and historical memory. Since the 1980s, schools have increasingly become testing hubs that de-skill teachers and disempower students."

"When they're not listening to their "rap" music or wasting time on their "Eye-Phones," millennials are finding other ways to differentiate themselves from past generations. Members of this generation, born between the early 1980s and early 2000s, are the first generation raised in a whirlwind of technological advances. They get flack for thinking differently, maybe being a little impulsive, maybe making more money, and maybe not. So how do you fare . . . do you think like a millennial? "
