I'm at the Web 2.0 Conference here in San Francisco, my second year attending. Last year felt very entrepreneurial and this year feels a little more serious and corporate. A lot of the products are starting to shift from a focus on the end user to enterprise deployments. Still no one from education here. Even though under 20 are the early adopters and most adventurous users of many of the technology, no one puts that together with what they do in school. What are the trends this year? Socia… Continue

In addition to the amazing speakers on the stage at the CoSN 7th Annual International Symposium, we had a fascinating discussion at my table. We had people from around the country and around the world, sharing our response to the speakers. Presented with many examples of how Web 2.0 tools were changing teaching and learning around the globe, we kept hearing how the tools stopped short of widespread adoption.

At the CoSN conference in March 2008, I led a birds of a feather discussion about Long Tail Learning. Our discussion hit on trust, student privacy, and school district liability.

Last October, I contacted some friends in San Diego to find out how they were doing when the wild fires raged through the county. I learned that technology played a key role in the school district's ability to communicate with families and continue learning despite a county-wide evacuation.

BTW, glad to see you resurrecting john dewey. While he could have used some of your editing in his writing his ideas with regard to the nature of education and schooling are as relavant today as they were back in the early part of the last century. Dewey was really done in by his disciple William Kilpatrick who was the popularizer and bastardizer of his ideas.

No one said my picture looks cute. Can I borrow your hat for my picture?? Might help!
I just subscribed to Grant Wrangler and added you as a friend. I am the grants coordinator for an new charter high school in Buffalo, NY and this looks like a great resource. Thanks!
