If you've not seen this page, then you REALLY need to stop in and explore. This does a great job about showcasing and explaining the notion of a Digital Nation

What an innovative, forward-looking principal to embrace technology the way he did! I was impressed that the percentage of students on grade level rose 53% in 3years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW! These are the types of videos our school boards and administrators need to see. This is far more effective than teaching to the test and constant reviewing for PSSAs!

Number 1: Step Away from the BoardMove over. Put your students on the stage. Coach them well and send them to the Board. Use your SMART Slate to get out of in front of your classroom. We all know that students learn best and remember more by doing it themselves, so let them. Play during your conference period or after school. Why should teachers have all the fun?

A term like web 2.0 begets the notion that there will imminently be a 3.0, 4.0, and beyond. The convention serves those within a specific group much more than it does those who need to understand the concept the most. The term serves as a layer- an immediately unnecessary layer at that. The convention allows those inside the realm of understanding to point to those outside and express how much the outsiders need the insiders in order to understand and be enlightened. I’d rather we just all moved forward together in a way that makes sense and promotes progress rather than bifurcates.

We need to call it something, don't we? Web 2.0 does imply that a 2.1 or 3.0 is coming, but perhaps we need to think of it in another way. Let's say that Web 2.0 was a typo. Maybe the coiner of the term meant Web 2,0 and didn't finish the complete term. It could really be Web 2,000 for the millenium, and now we can use it for the next 1000 years(or 991). Just a thought!!

netbooks in hand in the next few months. There seems to be a growing commitment here to put technology in the hands of kids (instead of spending huge sums on stuff that students can’t use outside of the classroom) and to thinking about

The most noticeable observation I can make is the comparison of experiences from last year’s NECC to this year’s. Last year was my first, and it was quite honestly an incredibly overwhelming experience. I felt rather detached and fatigued as I flew out of San Antonio, and I can directly attribute that to how disconnected I was to this community. I hadn’t yet started my blog, I was only faintly invested in Twitter, and I knew a total of about five people at the conference. How a year can change everything.
