It is a distinct culture that our children live and, in no small part, cultivated. At the core of that culture is not technology, but information, and information environment that is radically different from the one that I grew up in.
I suggest that if we can learn about the defining qualities of their native information experience, we might be able to hack our classroom learning activities to utilize some of those qualities.
Their information experience,
- Is Responsive
- Provokes Conversation
- Inspires Personal Investment
- Is Guided by Safely Made Mistakes
- Preparing a new generation of learners
- Within a new information landscape
- For a future that we can not clearly describe

So very sorry for the technical problems that interupted the presentation. You were most patient, and, as I said, Im not sorry for audiences to see me struggle. Its part of learning.
