We have to be about the thing that technology cannot and will not be able to do, and that's care deeply for our kids as humans, help them develop passions to learn, solve problems that are uniquely important to them, understand beauty and meaning in the world, help them play and create and apply knowledge in ways that add to the richness of life, and develop empathy and deep contextual understanding of the world. And more.

Life in the 21st century provides a whole-new world of opportunities for self-directed, passion-driven, personalized learning. Educators who are ready to move on from teaching the way they were taught, and administrators who will let them, can begin supporting students using tools and strategies available to the 21st century learner.

Interesting article that adds "digital skills" to each category of the revised version of Bloom's Taxonomy. I can see connections between this and my http://Web2ThatWorks.com wiki.

The unequal access to high quality education in classrooms and to technology in our society is undeniable. Furthermore, the two problems of unequal educational opportunity and unequal access to technology cannot be seen as mutually exclusive. As educators, we can no longer view the use of technology in our classrooms as simply innovative pedagogy left to tech-savvy teachers. Today, the integration of technology in classrooms of marginalized student populations is the difference between giving students access to future opportunity and denying them from it.

When I compare my experiences in Title I and affluent schools, the inequities glare at me. I have attended conferences and read articles, engaged in discussion around the issue that tech-savvy educators call the “digital divide”. However, the words digital divide seem too gentle to me. The alliteration of the soft, polite d’s irks me.
The term ‘digital divide’ is as unacceptable as its definition. As I type a blog post on my laptop, simultaneously catching up on the news on my desktop and responding to text messages on my smart phone, the harsh word ‘chasm’ seems more fitting. Today, without the thoughtful, effective integration of empowering technological tools, no gap will be closed. Instead, without technology in classrooms, the divide too quickly becomes a gorge.

"Interpersonal learning , personalized learning, second life learning , 3d learning, collaborative learning and virtual learning , these are just some of the few buzz words you would be hearing so often in today’s educational literature. Things have changed , old methods and pedagogies are no longer relevant. The teacher-controlled learning where deconstructed and reconstructed information is presented in a highly formal and standardized classroom settings becomes very obsolete. The urgent questions we should , as educators , ask ourselves are : what is the driving engine behind this huge transformation in learning ? and Do we need a new pedagogy to better enhance learning ?"

"As an educator, I often find myself repeating the same icebreakers each year, trying to quickly get to know my students through “Two Truths and a Lie” or a “Getting To Know You” fact sheet.
In an effort to bring my own classroom to the present, I’ve put together a list of 10 icebreakers that use technology and fit with 21st century students:" -

"In an effort to keep everyone behaving, Microsoft has just unveiled a new (free) curriculum that's all about digital citizenship, intellectual property rights, and creative content. It offers cross-curricular classroom activities that align with the AASL and ISTE national academic standards. So far, more than 6,500 people have registered to use the curriculum. No matter how you feel about Microsoft, this free offering is worth checking out. You'll have to register an account but after that it's easy to find, select, download, and implement some of the objectives presented."
