McCain Says He's Learning How To Use the Internet (Wired.com) - 0 views

  •  
    "I am learning to get online myself, and I will have that down fairly soon, getting on myself," McCain told the New York Times in an interview that appeared Sunday.  "I don't expect to be a great communicator, I don't expect to set up my own blog, but I am becoming computer literate to the point where I can get the information that I need." Even so, McCain bluntly admits, "I don't e-mail. I've never felt the particular need to e-mail."

Open Thinking & Digital Pedagogy - 0 views

    My friend and colleague Marc (who really needs a blog) alerted me to this story regarding a recent legal ruling in the matter of the University of Ottawa and the Association of Professors of the University of Ottawa (UPUO). The case arose when the U of O charged that Professor Denis Rancourt "had misrepresented his course in a detailed web posting, in such a way as to have described a dramatically different course not compatible with the official course description." The 65-page ruling the case supported Dr. Rancourt's actions as within the purview of academic freedom.

  •  The skills are not new (with the exception of some of the Digital Literacy skills), but for centuries have been offered to only the privileged and gifted students. Yet all students need these skills to succeed.

  • It is important now that learning becomes focused both on what students need to know, and what students are able to do with what they know.
  • That is why the 21st century skills movement won’t be short-lived. It is an economic and social imperative we all share now.

Balance Versus Juggling | Slow Leadership - 0 views

  •  
    Juggling requires maintaining your center. The idea is to stop managing life so much, and begin managing yourself. Long ago I learned that it's better to prepare the speaker than the speech, particularly when I'm well acquainted with the subject matter. If I meticulously outline a lecture, rehearsing the points as I get ready to begin, I'm likely to lose my center. But if I chat with the audience first, put myself at ease, or take a few minutes for some deep breathing, the talk always goes more smoothly.
