I agree with Gary that IWBs have potential to be Pre-Gutenberg when used poorly. I have seen it firsthand. However, they can be part of meaningful workstations where knowledge is constructed if teachers are doing their jobs properly.

Add Sticky NoteI never imagined that 19 years later we would be fastening giant pre-Gutenberg technology to classroom walls. The priest chants while the monks take dictation on their tablet PCs. Don’t “interactive” white boards require bricks and mortar while reinforcing the dominance of the front of the room?

Our network policies treat teachers and children as either imbeciles or felons. How many of you are unable to use your classroom computers in educationally sound ways because of a network policy created without your input?
-
Add Sticky NoteYou cannot blame such stupidity on four walls of brick and mortar. The blame lies within the bankruptcy of our imaginations.

Bankruptcy is so appropriate a word choice for today's world, yes?

Dave TrussMuch of what is called virtual education is really just bad teaching done on the cheap. Most of what I have seen offered as online courses for students doesn’t rise to the level of a mail-order correspondence course. There may be no lectures, but there is no deep learning to be found either. Teachers don’t know their students and the pedagogical emphasis is on product over process.

We install iPod labs so that children can be marched down the hall once a week for iPod lessons. We chain laptop computers to desks and don’t allow children to take them home. That’s the point of a laptop. You cannot blame such stupidity on four walls of brick and mortar. The blame lies within the bankruptcy of our imaginations.

Add Sticky NotePerhaps school is where you find world-class science labs and pottery kilns and electron microscopes and great orchestras, theatrical productions and dance classes while stuff you can do at home is done at home. Unfortunately, the very things that make physical schools viable in the future are the first things to be stripped from the curriculum.

This is a wonderful vision. I remember the buttons my parents bought us in the 1970's when schools were cutting arts funding. They said "Music IS Basic" . These collaborative scenarios should be what school is *for*.
