-><span style="color: #900;">Good point. But I don't agree. Our kids have not really replaced anything with this. It's just that they're together when their together, and also together when they're not. What's lost, I fear, is those times when we're alone with our own thoughts. We're always connected and never really alone. I heard someone say, once, that ''it's during those times alone with our own thoughts, that we're becoming ourselves.'' </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

Yes, but screen time is not healthy for young children. Need some balance.
15 Nov 2013 - 18:06:34

What is the cost?
15 Nov 2013 - 18:07:51

-><span style="color: #900;">Worth it! Every other institution is paying the cost. We live in a networked, digital and information-abundant world, and can't predict the future we're preparing our children for. Should we be satisfied by continuing to teach them with 15th century technology? You find a way to pay for it, and keep paying. Some of the most successful 1:1 schools I've seen have also been some of the poorest. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

15 Nov 2013 - 18:08:54

When do we start "jacking in" ala The Matrix
15 Nov 2013 - 18:10:16

-><span style="color: #900;">That's actually an excellent question. The term was first coined in William Gibson's Neuromancer, a classic cyberpunk science fiction novel. A lot of what I'm reading points to the idea that we could soon, technically, plug computing capabilities directly into our brains. It's a disgusting idea, right now. But there's a lot that's happening today, that we would not have liked the idea of fifty years ago. Imagine plugging a flash drive looking device into your head, behind your ear, and suddenly being able to speak and understand Mandarin. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

So how do we prepare them to have in depth interactions using technology?
15 Nov 2013 - 18:11:05

@Rose Wilde Yes, like are we really attending to this lecture while chatting about it? Or, are we paying more attention?
15 Nov 2013 - 18:18:36

-><span style="color: #900;">I suspect that you're paying somewhat less attention. However, I hope that you are actually getting more from it by interacting about it. Plus, I suspect that those who were not chatting will get even more by reading this. Often I'll have youngsters in the audience chat while the adults pay attention. Then I have them read the youngster's backchanneling. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

15 Nov 2013 - 18:43:50

-><span style="color: #900;">Give them questionable information instead of the textbook, and condition them to question. Give them access to images and video and ask them to change it to tell a different story. Rather than asking them to write a report that only you will read, ask them to make a web page, video, music video, etc. that you will publish to the community. It all results in comprehension and critical thinking. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

15 Nov 2013 - 18:03:13

-><span style="color: #900;">Good point. But I don't agree. Our kids have not really replaced anything with this. It's just that they're together when their together, and also together when they're not. What's lost, I fear, is those times when we're alone with our own thoughts. We're always connected and never really alone. I heard someone say, once, that ''it's during those times alone with our own thoughts, that we're becoming ourselves.'' </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

Yes, but screen time is not healthy for young children. Need some balance.

We live in a networked, digital and information-abundant world, and can't predict the future we're preparing our children for. Should we be satisfied by continuing to teach them with 15th century technology? You find a way to pay for it, and keep paying.

But there's a lot that's happening today, that we would not have liked the idea of fifty years ago. Imagine plugging a flash drive looking device into your head, behind your ear, and suddenly being able to speak and understand Mandarin. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

@Rose Wilde Yes, like are we really attending to this lecture while chatting about it? Or, are we paying more attention?
15 Nov 2013 - 18:18:36

-><span style="color: #900;">I suspect that you're paying somewhat less attention. However, I hope that you are actually getting more from it by interacting about it. Plus, I suspect that those who were not chatting will get even more by reading this. Often I'll have youngsters in the audience chat while the adults pay attention. Then I have them read the youngster's backchanneling. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

15 Nov 2013 - 18:43:50

-><span style="color: #900;">Give them questionable information instead of the textbook, and condition them to question. Give them access to images and video and ask them to change it to tell a different story. Rather than asking them to write a report that only you will read, ask them to make a web page, video, music video, etc. that you will publish to the community. It all results in comprehension and critical thinking. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

15 Nov 2013 - 18:03:13

-><span style="color: #900;">Good point. But I don't agree. Our kids have not really replaced anything with this. It's just that they're together when their together, and also together when they're not. What's lost, I fear, is those times when we're alone with our own thoughts. We're always connected and never really alone. I heard someone say, once, that ''it's during those times alone with our own thoughts, that we're becoming ourselves.'' </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

15 Nov 2013 - 18:10:16

-><span style="color: #900;">That's actually an excellent question. The term was first coined in William Gibson's Neuromancer, a classic cyberpunk science fiction novel. A lot of what I'm reading points to the idea that we could soon, technically, plug computing capabilities directly into our brains. It's a disgusting idea, right now. But there's a lot that's happening today, that we would not have liked the idea of fifty years ago. Imagine plugging a flash drive looking device into your head, behind your ear, and suddenly being able to speak and understand Mandarin. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

But if we ask them questions that requires them to cook those Googled answers in their heads to come up with something new, then they'll go deep, especially if they'll be recognized for their thinking. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

But this country is still shamefully behind in getting high speed Internet to the homes of its citizens and that is a national problem.

15 Nov 2013 - 18:12:50

Many still resent that it's changed. The trade of is clear, however. What we get along with '''uncertainty''' is '''opportunity'''. We have to make the opportunity so exciting that we forget about what we've lost. </span> - dfw<img src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/7f39fcc720abd8b9787b378a95ee8149' height='25' align='right'>

15 Nov 2013 - 18:18:36

-><span style="color: #900;">I suspect that you're paying somewhat less attention. However, I hope that you are actually getting more from it by interacting about it. Plus, I suspect that those who were not chatting will get even more by reading this. Often I'll have youngsters in the audience chat while the adults pay attention.
