We’re at the last day of our SLA workshop, and we’re lucky enough to have Will Richardson with us today, and we’re just talking about this stuff.

I’m going to live blog a bunch of ideas and sites that he’s mentioning… it’ll be a mess, and I’ll try to contextualize a lot of it later.

— Everyone is an expert on something, our job as teachers is now to find what they are / want to be experts and helping them to become better experts.

— We are changing from "just in case learning" to "just in time learning"

— What happens when we change our language from "hand it in" to "publish it."

— If kids / we don’t know how judge the information we find online and become good editors both of what we publish and what we know, we are essentially illiterate.

— We need to be deconstructing MySpace. Can you imagine what would happen if we said to the kids, "Today we’re going to learn about MySpace."
