Burning Questions:
You can continue to add your questions (about technology, about 21st century education, about personalized education, about collaboration, about the role of libraries, or about other things you think we should think about together) to document.
What is still relevant?
Survival in a rapidly changing environment depends almost entirely upon being able to identify which of the old concepts are relevant to the demands imposed by the new threats to survival, and which are not. Then a new educational task becomes critical: getting the group to unlearn (to "forget") the irrelevant concepts as a prior condition of learning. Neil Postman
Let's continue to ponder. Add to our list.

Shelley sent us a link to a Story Maker site and I used it to create a story. Until Jan 30, 2012 you can go to the site http://www.carnegielibrary.org/kids/storymaker/ and use this magic number to view the story: 257128 I think the kids would really enjoy making their own stories!
