I will need to learn how to use what is available to my students. This is a problem in the education system that really needs to worked on and changed. Thanks again for your comments and I really enjoyed your blog!<br /><br />Lindsey EdwardsLindsey Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07153070650473647269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8379570009988262646.post-676520702539039112012-05-03T12:00:13.301-05:002012-05-03T12:00:13.301-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Lindsey Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07153070650473647269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8379570009988262646.post-20022073274406913752012-04-30T13:01:45.239-05:002012-04-30T13:01:45.239-05:00Here's the hitch, Lindsey: In many schools, y...Here's the hitch, Lindsey: In many schools, you won't have any more access to technology than you had during your digital fast!<br /><br />Heck: I work in an upper-middle class suburb in a very digitally savvy community and yet my classroom has 2 desktop machines that work once in a while. <br /><br />I can also sign out a laptop cart -- but the machines are generally all out of date -- or wait for an opening in the desktop lab -- which can take over a month. <br /><br />Cell phones are banned. Bringing your own device to school isn't allowed. <br /><br />Think about the challenge that you had with staying engaged when you were without technology. Your students face that same challenge at school.<br /><br />#nuts<br /><br />BTW: I'm not sure if I'm a pessimist or a realist, but I'm definitely not happy with schools as they currently exist!<br /><br />Rock on, <br />Bill Ferriter<br />The Tempered RadicalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
