Progressive Education
How much have our schools REALY changed in the past 50 or 60 years....
and yet...
How much has our world changed...
I think about all of the tools for collaboration and conversation that weren't available even 9 months ago...
And how things will be different by the time NECC rolls around 9 months from now...
I have spent the past week at a "boot camp" for PA educators who are working to help implement a state program so that districts can begin to help their students use 21st Century tools for learning. I know that there has been a LOT put out on platters....sometimes too much. But at least the conversations have begun... I am glad I am developing a network of folks who are thinking about these things, becoming agents for change....for the most important reasonsWhat are you doing, what new things have you learned, how can you act to make these changes happen in your world?

great presentation!
ReplyDeletehopefully, we take our thoughts from Boot Camp and arrive back at our school with a plan, a drive, and a level of enthusiasm that brings this vision to life.
besides, who knows what is waiting for all of us 9 months from now!?
Loved your "social bookmarking" presentation! Really like that you present using web2.0 skills - google presentation tools were so go for different modalities! As usual you have dished out a heaping helping of brain food with tons of educational applications! Thanks!
