Yes, we should learn the social tools that our students are using outside of the classroom, because they think “you can’t teach me if you don’t know what it is that I’m using.”
Anonymity to engage all of the people in the room – Instant Feedback
“Remember the Stars” video on YouTube – Number the Stars
Assignment – These are the 10 toughest things to learn in the curriculum and I need your help to find items that address these items – CURRICULUM RESEARCHERS
GOOGLE
Site:ac.uk – AC stands for academic
More – Even more – Custom Search
1. Organize your staff to develop a search engine for families to use in their homes
2. Work of one child contributes to the benefit of others (collaborative)
Tutorial – Camtasia – Screen casting software – Tutorial Designers – jingproject.com
• Prime Factorization example – Math – Screen shots and recorded student voice
Harness the collective knowledge to benefit the community – this is the purpose of the web.
“A whole new mind” – Dan Pink - Book
ALTAVISTA – virtual index for any website
Host:Nasa.gov
TEAMS OF STUDENTS: Search engine design team, curriculum design team, tutorial design team;
podcast team
1. Layout plan and responsibilities
2. Mic – Audacity – free software
What is the role of the learner in the 21st century? They need to have “real jobs.” You can still integrate NCLB.
End tech planning – ramp up – information and global communication planning – don’t plan for “stuff”; What information do you want…NOT what technology do you want.

He uses altavista because of how Google ranks its search results. For example, try this one:
site:tipline.blogspot.com "social studies"
All results are from that one site.
Do you recall taking an "Intermediate Internet for Educators" course YEARS ago and we did this very thing back then. I was showing it in the late '90's. His point is that it shouldn't be new to folks - but it is.
