Do you provide devices to students or let them bring there own?

BYOD makes a lot of sense to me, philosophically. Learning needs to be more personal and having your personal device, is key to that. However, BYOD has lots of complications. Regardless, students should be free to personalize their learning devices, and be free to devote as much time and resource to finding and inventing personal ways to use them for learning.</span> - dfw

It's the picture we match to the word. So what is the picture of personalized learning? Something in me wants to look at what use to be called ''vocational education''.</span> - dfw

You can find a Word document <a href="http://landmark-project.com/workshops/files/code_of_ethics.doc">here</a> that is a proposed code of ethics for students and teachers. It is based on the code of ethics of the Society of Professional Journalists. The main points are:

* Seek Truth and Express It
* Minimize Harm
* Be Accountable
* Respect Information and its Infrastructure</span> - dfw

the un-conference session: Original question, How do we create the sense of urgency to change our current educational system.

First, we must individual and collectively accept that the current educational system can be improved. (requires lots of communication through multiple modes)
You must demonstrate the willingness to make decisions and take risks to necessary to change the system
You must be willing to provide the tools and resources necessary.
You must articulate your expectations to your community of educators
You must advocate and support the professional development needs of your educators
You must be willing to provide the time for collaboration through learning communities to occur (quality over quantity)
You must be willing to accept other methods of assessment of competency, skill and content mastery for your students.
