    Keynote at ISTE 2012.  Here is a video of YongZhao's presentation.  He was a wonderful speaker, very engaging and funny, but with a clear and serious message.  There is about 15 minutes of intro stuff first, but you can fast forward that if you are short on time.  His talk is about an hour and well worth your time.

    I like this question.  Maybe Amanda or Ann could use it?  Not sure who is teaching digital literacy these days, but maybe they could all team up?  Or the library might have some nice video editing equipment and we could host our own video challenge?

    Khan as teacher-centered lectures, not student-centered learning.  Still, the videos could support independent learners.

    Google's move to a new privacy policy includes information about staying safe on line and how Google will use your data.  Probably good to share with staff and students.
