Public Sticky notes

Reminds me of a Native Indian in the USA that once said to me, “Go back to Europe.” I could have returned, “Go back to Asia,” but what would be the point really? We are all here now. And, this is why tools need to evolve to help us manage the data and relationships. We each have a choice on our level of participation. Fresh voices along with seasoned experts is a mix that I have personally adopted. As a right-brainer, I like divergent thinking as a starting point. I can always converge when the time is right. Some people, however, are convergent thinkers at the start. As a divergent thinker and explorer, the Web and it’s varied voices and ability to connect is the greatest gift of my lifetime.

I think we all need to maintain a focus on school change

we need people in classrooms arguing for change and showing what can be done. I’m a bit concerned that all of the ‘best’ people are going to end up as full-time consultants…

I think more people are twittering than reading RSS, particularly the blogging type.

There are lot of people adding us all to their RSS readers for the sake of having an RSS reader but not really to converse.

We no longer send our kids to school where they are sectioned off by grade level

if I can provoke teachers to consider what these technologies mean in terms of their own learning, and help them then think about the changes in terms of their classrooms, then so be it

And where would newbies find these seminal posts?
