Educational Change Challenge
Here's a good video that would be appropriate to share at the beginning of a workshop/ presentation/ conference about teaching with technology in the 21st Century .  Some highlights from the video: //Who seriously believes that locking 25 students in a small room with one adult for several hours each day is the best way for them to be educated//? //Moving from the one-room schoolhouse to the one-world schoolhouse is now a reality. In education the use it or lose it rule may mean if you don't use tech for learning, you may lose relevance. An educator must be relevant.// media type="youtube" key="UEHNhcdyMtc" height="405" width="500"

E-learning is a very different experience. Books and classrooms are great. They will not end.

We have many tools that are inexpensively at our service to enhance learning online. We can create online and offline collaboration, conversation, and creation. We must be creative and innovative and focus on the learner. We’re not entirely there yet, but the future of learning is being discovered, now, by librarians and educators and students who experiment and share. We can do it.
