Quote of the Day
During our Articulation time, David Warlick's name came up. I thought I would share a quote out of the 2nd edition (released a few weeks ago) of his book "Classroom Blogging: A Teacher's Guide to Blogging, Wikis, and Other Tools that are Shaping a New Information Landscape." I can personally recommend this text as a valuable resource for both personal and instructional needs. And David always seems willing to step in to comment on blogs wherever he is mentioned (your students would love that). Just don't take his picture with the camera built-in to your laptop while he is on stage doing a presentation. :)
Anyway, his quote from the book:
"We should no longer assume the authority of information we encounter, but, instead, prove the authority."
Good stuff! Pertinent.

Yes! That's what we're trying to do is to help raise a generation of "thinkers."
Thanks for the post!

David Warlick just has a way of saying the obvious in a succinct manner.
