What does it mean to be LITERATE?

Posted by wbrennan on October 18, 2007

I hope to reach out to a big audience with this one, because it sure is a relevant question these days.  From one generation to the next there are differences in opinons on what it means to be literate in the 21st century.  I for one have always found video and music to be a powerful means of delivering a message.  Maybe you have seen this or maybe you haven’t, but please watch this.  To my fellow bloggers, please share your ideas on what it means to be literate after watching that show.  Comments will be posted and I am setting up our very first podcast regarding this topic.

Are our students getting what they need?

Posted by wbrennan on October 17, 2007

This Monday I had the pleasure of meeting with David Warlick and Karen Cator, chair of the Partnership for 21st Century Skills at the 2020 Vision Now conference on Long Island.  It was a great day.   One of the conversations I had was about the Classroom 2.0 website which I found great.   That night I came across some great student videos.  Check out this video.
