May 30, 2010 – Dan Meyer talks about giving teachers a break when it comes to learning technology.
I love this quote:
The point is that y’all don’t understand that you’re a bunch of freaks. Someone links up some new online Photoshop knock-off and on muscle memory alone you’re entering in your e-mail address and a password and clonking away at your new toy.
Real people aren’t like that. And you give them too much grief, sometimes, for their unwillingness to sign up for ten different web apps to service ten different nuances in their learning which you have judged to be equally essential.
and:
every time you tell a teacher to download a new application or set up an account with a new web application, the teacher loses a fingertip.
Funny and so true, Dan!
May 30, 2010 – Good notes on what classrooms should look like and what students should be learning by doing.
