I couldn't attend the conference as we are just too busy to go, but I did attend vicariously and one of the keynotes(especially in conjunction with what I am currently doing) simply struck a chord. Listen to the following (start on about minute 50 as the opening stuff is just opening stuff and not the heart of the video). The questions basically is" Are bricks and mortar schools dead?"
I have to go with blended myself and that has been my thinking for a number of years. My concern is that too many folks don't see the benefit of the online and social networking world at all and we still have too many schools which are trying to keep these things out of school by policy without looking at the larger context. So check out this next video, which tells one teacher's story of "getting it."
