Connected? To what?

In recent times I have been thinking of how I am connected, what I am connected to and who these connections link me to. On a work level I am driven to become more like a curator of information and less like a store person. They both are helping others connect with the content but the web based online information has changed everything.

I am inspired to make innovative new ways to help others learn in this hugely technology savvy world in which I find myself. I think I need to push the boundaries of thinking and find way to engage the learners in my space.


If the learners are engaged and feel safe to take risks then doesn't that mean that these learners have embraced change?

IPads

This is an interesting article that I came across while looking for research about iPads. I am particularly interested in the multimedia aspects of iPads and think this will bring the huge change in teaching and learning that we have all been awaiting. http://www.diigo.com/bookmark/http%3A%2F%2Fthejournal.com%2Farticles%2F2011%2F09%2F06%2Fipads-make-better-readers-writers.aspx?gname=clifsnotes
