Ever feel overwhelmed? I'm sitting in on a professional development workshop with Apple's Steve Cowdrey. In an effort to remember some key thoughts, I'll be jotting notes here.
"If the questions you are asking can be answered by using google, you're asking the wrong questions."
"Teachers need to stop practicing management and begin practicing leadership." Too often teachers get caught up with classroom management when we should be leading students--the best way to lead is by example! If we want our students to read, we need to be readers!
Digital Learning is made up of three key characteristics:
Mobility--24/7 access
User Created
Social Networking/Collaboration
Thought: Are the applications/tools I am using in my classroom meeting these three criteria?
