It’s the eve of the Texas Chief Technology Officers’ (CTO) Clinic, hosted by the Consortium for School Networking (COSN). I arrived earlier tonight, but have spent a lot of time upgrading the look of the Around the Corner blog (be sure to drop by for a visit and share your opinion on the new look). I’ll be speaking to this session description and question:
From Facebook and other Social networking applications to wikis, blogs and digital media, students in the U.S. are fully engaged in the use of participatory Web 2.0 tools outside of the classroom. Though school leaders believe that Web 2.0 collaborative applications expand the resources available for classroom learning; they are often constrained by policy considerations. How can schools better align the reality of technology-rich world in which students live outside of school with the learning experiences they have in the classroom each day?
My “short” presentation at the Texas CTO Clinic comes after Dr. Krueger’s unveiling of a new report on Web 2.0 and Policy Leadership. While I will certainly revise my presentation between tonight and Tuesday afternoon, when I present, I invite you to share your feedback on the question above via your phone or in writing….
