What is your vision of school for the future?

What is your vision of school for the future? If we didn't have what we have today in education how would we rebuild it to make it even better?

Another question for my GWA colleagues

Now that I (hopefully) have raised your awareness levels for Web 2.0 technology, let's take it to a true 2.0 level.
If we didn't have what we have today, education wise, how would we rebuild it to be better? What changes or improvements would you create? How would it look compared to the present?
Remember Web 2.0 is read/write and is all about the conversations we start. Thanks and I look forward to your responses,
Gerry

Question for the class

What have we learned about new technology and facing adversity?

Curiosity in the classroom

Read another blog on my PLN and two interesting questions came up. First, how much excitement is there in your classroom? In elementary excitement may sometimes be disguised as activity, but how excited are your students to take part in the learning activity. In middle and high school my guess is that some teachers discount that students need to be excited about learning but that's where they are wrong. A student who is excited about learning will be a successful learner.
Second, is there something in your classroom that piques curiosity? It doesn't even have to be related to the subject matter but just as above and excitement, a curious learner is a successful learner.
