some random links…
12 02 2009- “Game shows are designed to make us feel better about the random, useless facts that are all we have left of our education.”
- Chuck Palahniuk - A couple of random but powerful links came to me this morning. As is often the case these links came to me from all over the place; some more surprising then others.
- The first was sent to me by the elementary literacy specialist here at CMS. This was a little surprising as she is an admitted technophobe (and my wife). It was one of the many posts that my NetVibes had marked as unread. Take a quick look at the “Seven Stupid Mistakes Teachers Make Using Technology” from the always fantastic Blue Skunk blog.
- The Second was this video, which i think does a fantastic job of demonstrating what i believe should be our goal in EdTech:
- I love the focus on Personal Learning Networks; I really feel that this is the term that we should all be using.
- Finally this video found itself in front of me this morning (found here). I find it to be a great little motivator if you are in need of a “pick me up” today.
