Response to Pete Smith

Pete:

Thank you for your presentation today. I agree with George Seimens who said learning is only of value when in network and connected. We as educators must be knowledgeable facilitators, not managers. I am interested in just becoming more technology literate....aware of what some of my 6th grade students already know about and are using, incorporating perhaps some blogging or e-portfolios into my classwork. I can see where there could much benefit to this as far as reaching some of our more challenging students are concerned.
