Invitation

Please feel free to edit the conversation with answers and solutions. Simply click Edit at the top right of the page and enter teacher as the password. You can insert text, in much the same way that you would with a word processor. However it is a very primitive word processor. You will see, at the bottom of the page, techniques for formatting your messages.

all conversations about tech usage are like grades prek-4 don't exist! if could start early on, the middle school problems wouldn't be so difficult.

But I repeat the question here, "Are all infographics biased?" I don't know, but it's a great question to talk about, perhaps even in class. - dfw

David I look forward to reading your conversation. 11 Oct 2012 - 13:37:57

Wow! I'm impressed. - dfw
Added lines 133-134:
I'm using AirServer on my Mac. It's been difficult to use at conferences, but here, I've brought my own Airport Express, so that I could created a wireless network that's only available to me. - dfw
Added lines 139-140:
Yes! There was a saying that came out of the MIT Media Lab. Rather than "publish or parish" it's "Demo or parish." - dfw
Added lines 145-146:
Hmmm! I'll have to look into that. - dfw
Added lines 155-156:
The world of learning and of doing have been separated from each other, and the fault is partly ours. No it's entirely the fault of the education institution. - dfw
Added lines 173-174:
Hmmm! Interesting. And subversive. I like it! - dfw
Added lines 179-180:
I don't get it! - dfw
Added lines 185-186:
Yes! It starts in schools of education. But if you're job is to prepare teachers for the first five years of their career, then universities have only a small part of the responsibility. - dfw
Added lines 191-192:
Yep! That's a huge problem. The school culture has to be such that teachers develop the habits of learning and sharing what they are learning -- and how they are learning it. It has to be part of the ongoing conversation of the school. - dfw
Added lines 209-210:
Yes! But I really hate to think that the key is any one thing or one person. That's too hard! - dfw
Added lines 215-216:
Thanks. This is actually the first them Reggio has come up spontaneously in these backchannels. - dfw
Added lines 221-222:
The fact of the matter is that we are all learners. In the way that children don't think of video games as learning, we don't equate the learning that we do outside of school with "learning," because it doesn't look like a classroom. This is part of what we need to do, to expand our notions of what learning looks like, and celebrate, share, make it work in the classroom (and out). - dfw
Added lines 235-236:
It's being romantic. It's why I still publish books, I have a romantic sense of what an author does, and my mother-n-law treats me better when I publish a new book. - dfw
Added lines 241-242:
I would like to see it tried at the high school level. Are they doing that in Italy? - dfw
Added lines 271-272:
Thank you! That one was throwing me as well. - dfw
Added lines 285-286:
Cool! I didn't know about this one. - dfw
Added lines 311-312:
This is very cool, teacher professional development by teachers. - dfw
Added lines 321-322:
I greatly lament the fact that my son doesn't know what it is to straighten a nail. - dfw

Apple Keynote! - dfw

Good question. I wrote the code. It's the benefit of having gotten into computer, when you had to program them to use them. - dfw

That's actually a great question. I believe that some people think it's about using it all the time. No! You use it when this sort of feedback and continued conversation is pedagogically sound. - dfw
