I had a chance to hear from Marc Prensky at the Lake Placid Administrators Retreat this afternoon. Interesting presentation about digital natives and digital immigrants. There is no question that we have a digital divide between our teachers and our students. As always, a presentation like this always brings up some difficult questions.....
1. How do we help our teachers see the need to teach our students in a different way, when we are already a successful school? (Or at least according to state standards)
2. Are we teaching 21st century skills?
3. How do we get more students involved with our school improvement?
These are only a few questions popping into my head.....I'm looking for practical answers to these questions....
