Student voice for meaning, self-actualization, safety (ISTE 2017)

July 2, 2017 By Anne Leave a Comment

ISTE 2017 logo

"Our kids can be experts in the world," said visionary educator Chris Lehmann (@chrislehmann), meaning right now, as students, in school, in digital spaces, in life. Then he asked, "How can we help them be that?" He was speaking last week at ISTE, the world's largest ed tech conference. I went to ISTE to see what educators were saying about student voice, and what I found was a trend: growing … [Read more...] about Student voice for meaning, self-actualization, safety (ISTE 2017)

Giving students ‘skin in the game’ – another anti-distraction tool [sidebar]

December 17, 2013 By Anne Leave a Comment

Chris Lehmann, founding principal at Philadelphia's Science Leadership Academy, really sums it up: giving students "skin in the game," as he put it to Education Week. That means, as the educators I mention in the main article show, using education technology not as another platform or delivery tool for traditional tutorial-style teaching but for the kind of "inquiry-driven, project-based" learning … [Read more...] about Giving students ‘skin in the game’ – another anti-distraction tool [sidebar]

My ISTE 2011: Notes from a giant conference

July 1, 2011 By Anne Leave a Comment

To me, ISTE – with some 18,000 attendees from 68 countries having converged on Philadelphia this week – is like looking out the window from a fast train through a dense urban area: mostly a blur, but your eye freeze-frames what's meaningful to you. So I always come away feeling enriched by the updates and insights I glean and the fresh dose of inspiration I get from connecting with people who love … [Read more...] about My ISTE 2011: Notes from a giant conference

Smart young YouTube vlogger on education’s fail

April 25, 2011 By Anne 4 Comments

I watched 20-something Dan Brown's compelling 6.5-min. "Open letter to educators" on YouTube this morning after an educator I admire and follow on Twitter, Tom Whitby, tweeted about it. In it, Dan, aka pogobat, very engagingly asks what it means to receive an education now, in these discontinuous times, and explains how the institutional education we've long revered is beginning to fail many … [Read more...] about Smart young YouTube vlogger on education’s fail

2 key SXSW themes: Anonymity & meaningfulness

March 18, 2011 By Anne Leave a Comment

Two distinct, game-changing themes that emerged from the complexity of South by Southwest (SXSW) this year are worth following wherever they turn up – in Washington and other places where policymakers gather, in business, and in people's Internet use: anonymity and meaningfulness. Sometimes they intersect. Both are vitally important to all of us. The former is good and bad but always essential to … [Read more...] about 2 key SXSW themes: Anonymity & meaningfulness
