“Learning to Change, Changing to Learn - Kid’s Tech.”
What messages do you hear most clearly from these students? I hear students clearly saying technology is an essential part of their identities and the way they process as well as interact with information and other people in the world. Given this reality for many students, why are schools not embracing more digital, personal technology platforms (including laptops as well as cell phones) as incredibly powerful learning levers and amplifiers? Sadly, fear and ignorance continue to define many conversations in many school board meetings. Perhaps students in your LOCAL community should record and share a similar video to this one, and then ask to show it at an upcoming school board meeting? Perhaps then your local school board members will listen and start to engage in the dialog necessary to change our schools into the multi-age, digitally infused learning centers we need them to be in the 21st century. - from ISTE BLOG 3/9/09
