  • Note-passing is the bane of a teacher’s existence and this method is technological. Again, there are procedures in place for passing notes. The teacher needs only to now stipulate written or digital; problem solved.
  •  Smartphones are powerful, mobile, personal learning devices.  But of course, there is that damned control issue thing.
  • Why not teach them how to maximize their learning. We can’t expect them to use the technology appropriately if they “learn it on the streets”.

Cute kittens, people “failing”, music videos, cartoon series, and more – content that distracts kids from using YouTube as a learning channel. Fortunately Google recognized this problem and has launched a solution called YouTube for Schools.

  • We don’t need to end, abolish, or abandon any of these things.

  • they're not "designing and sharing information for global communities to meet a variety of purposes." Nor are they "building relationships with others to solve problems collaboratively and cross-culturally." And as far as "managing, analyzing and synthesizing multiple streams of information?"
