I'm very excited about this beta program. Sadly, they have an unusual approach for beta users but just looking at the concept behind Zeromail and I knew it was something I wanted. I think it could have great potential for the overwhelmed educator. Take a look at the sleek interface! I think you'll find the organization and possibilities are quite evident. As far as I'm concerned, this can't get here fast enough. Waiting for it will be difficult, no doubt!
"The
simplest
way to bring the web to your classroom
...and
your classroom to the web"
"You may have heard already that digital literacy and increased technical capacity are critical components of the K-12 education. I happen to agree. The problem is that public education hasn’t had sufficient means to put enough computing devices in the hands of students. Computers have been expensive and if you have had a computer lab that you could visit with your class once a week then you had more than most. Now with the evolution of mobile platforms, netbooks, tablets, and “Bring Your Own Technology” programs (like this one explained my @micwalker) there is a warm feeling in the education community that meaningful 1 to 1 access in the classroom is possible everywhere. Teachers are excited, students are stoked, and technology directors are petrified. The possibilities are endless including live streams from our classrooms, social media at the hands of every learner, and every student becoming the smartest kid in school because she can search Google on her iPad. I am energized that the promise of educational technology — a world of connected learning, collaboration, and creative design to engage and impact student achievement — may finally be mature enough to implement in all classrooms."
