But I wonder if making reading the foundation sometimes happens at the cost of higher order thinking skills. I think I prefer a more level arrangement, that students need to learn to find it, decode it (read), evaluate it, contextualize it and making meaning of it. It's all empowering and if learners are learning to read within those other empowering skills, then reading becomes a tool, rather than just something you do for class.'' </span> - dfw

I am intrigued with the BYOD approach. It's authentic. However, there are negatives. One of the most appealing programs I've heard of was from a private school in California, where students were required to bring their own technology.
