  • "Technology has been completely transparent to the Net Gen. 'It doesn't exist. It's like the air,' said Coco Conn, cofounder of the Web-based Cityspace project. MIT's Dr. Idit Harel, a professor of epistemology, agreed: 'For the kids, it's like using a pencil. Parents don't talk about pencils, they talk about writing.

  • The iPad however, provides an alternative method by providing a lower cost of entry, while allowing for student-centered instruction where students are able to both create content and access information anywhere, anytime.  The key for revolutionizing education is having educators who embrace this technology to change how they teach to create a learning environment where students, not teachers, are the focus of the instruction.   
  • “Yeah it does all that and it’s a phone!”  Amidst a cacophony of reverent Oooh’s and Ahh’s, I unknowingly witnessed the birth of the Smart-Phone and the death knell of the PDA.  I bring this up because I recently was approached by someone who told me that our school should get rid of all PC’s and give everyone iPads.

  • For this assignment the secondary 2 students from the Singapore International School (HK) were required to go to an area in Hong Kong and use their 5 senses to describe what they experienced. Their English teachers helped them by taking them on walks around the neighbourhood of our school and getting them to think about what they could see, smell, taste, hear and touch. The students then worked in groups, picked an area they wanted to explore and set off to use their newly heighten senses.

  • a PLC included several key components around which they are defined – 1). a focus on learning; 2); collaborative culture focused on learning; 3). collective inquiry; 4). action orientation and experimentation; 5). continuous improvement; and 6). results orientation.  The authors are quick and clear to also point out that a group of people simply working together on a task may not meet the definition of a PLC.
