      Do they really?
  • To us, the Web is a sort of shared external memory.
  • We do not have to remember unnecessary details: dates, sums, formulas, clauses, street names, detailed definitions.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Why should we pay for the distribution of information that can be easily and perfectly copied without any loss of the original quality?
  • we do not want to pay for our memories.
  • freedom of speech, freedom of access to information and to culture. We feel that it is thanks to freedom that the Web is what it is, and that it is our duty to protect that freedom. We owe that to next generations, just as much as we owe to protect the environment.

    The shift from 'sage on the stage' to 'guide on the side', while it has served an important function in shifting the focus from the teacher to the learner, does not capture the fullness of the implications of this shift. We have been hearing about the importance of 'lifelong learning' for some time now in formal education. If, as Bauman asserts, 'unlearning' will be as important to social success in the 21st millennium as learning has been in the 20th millennium, then the habit of 'lifelong learning' will need radical re-thinking in terms of the nature and purposes of pedagogical work. Put simply, we will need to see a further shift from sage-on-the-stage and guide-on-the-side to meddler-in-the-middle (McWilliam, 2005).

  • in American curriculums, a growing emphasis on standardized test scores as the primary measure of “successful” schools has crowded out what should be an essential criterion for well-educated students: a sense of responsibility for the well-being of others.
  • teachers, janitors and bus drivers are all trained to identify instances of bullying, and taught how to intervene.
