  • But most schools and classrooms will no longer be the central learning hubs they are today.   Today’s model of schooling is to bring the learner to the knowledge—tomorrow we will bring the knowledge to the learners.   We must recognize that schools and classrooms are becoming nodes in networked learning communities.   We must begin to think about how to organize learning in networked communities and not limit learning within the boundaries of classrooms and school buildings—which would be to limit our thinking to what has been possible in the past in a single school or node.
  • The new and more powerful opportunity available to educators today is to use these technologies to help individuals collaboratively construct networked learning communities that will accelerate and augment the community’s learning, as well as each individual’s learning.
  • We need to get rid of the circle and enable them to be learners in an open learning environment (see Figure 5). One of the large “L’s” in the diagram is the expert learner

  • Did the open space concept fail, or did we fail to prepare teachers who could teach in an open space model? We changed the physical space in those buildings, but because we continued to prepare most teachers as if the only way to teach is using the solo, stand alone, self-contained, isolated classroom model—the open space concept could not work
  • we have to prepare teachers very differently than we have in the past
  • Any organization that adopts a new technology without significant organizational change is doomed to failure. You have to change the organization. You cannot just add the technology

    "Technological networks have transformed prominent businesses sectors: music, television, financial, manufacturing. Social networks, driven by technological networks, have similarly transformed communication, news, and personal interactions. Education sits at the social/technological nexus of change - primed for dramatic transformative change."

    Now if success in life were achieved with the help of others and some good luck, as Gladwell argues convincingly, would it not also make sense that failure follows a similar pattern? Can we really believe in the self-made failure when we can no longer believe in the simplistic explanation of the self-made success?

    I'm still thinking about that UCLA research saying "technology in the classroom damages literacy and critical thinking." I'm still thinking it's behind the times, in its framing of technology as "video games and TV," and its complete omission of the Web and the social media/Web 2.0 explosion over the last five years or so.

    This blog post includes a link to great video called "Positively Autistic" that talks about turnign around our thinking - instead of thinking of our "deficits" can we start looking at our "assets" instead? And how does that change our parenting or teaching?

    We can point fingers. We can blame others. We can rail against the system. But we must recognize that we are in charge of the system. In essence, as stewards of school organizations, we ARE the system. We create the system every day.
