Pensky's suggestion that Technology use in the classroom should engage, not enrage, is a powerful message. I feel this video best sums up our 21st century learners and what we are dealing with as education facilitators in the 21st century. Some scary thoughts there - primary school children blogging? Pretty amazing stuff.
These children are engaging with their learning through modern mediums. No more are we using the HB pencil and red and blue lined paper, but we are using an iPad to blog our stories for a nation wide story writing competition that encompasses over 10000 students. These children are not enraged, but engaged!
