So many questions. Are there any real answers?
If School 2.0 is all about collaborative working, children directing the learning, teaching and learning for ‘Just in Time’ what does it look like in a matrix. What should I be doing with my Year 3’s? Year 5’s, Year 2’s? I’ve heard from Vicki Davies blog recently that keyboarding isn’t dead. That word-processing at the speed of speech is practically a miraculous gift. Wesley has some software suggestions that might help. Speech recognition software is no where close; currently. Perhaps if it were the learning would be impaired somewhat. I know I have learnt more since being this blog than I have ever done- perhaps. Don Tapscott talks about the flat work place. That N-Geners prefer a flatter workplace. I wonder what a flat school would look like. Would I truly be a better place for it? Flatter in terms of the students or the staff or both? What would that really look like. Would communication with the school be better or worse? Would we achieve more or less?
So many questions are there any real answers out there. And more importantly are schools, principals, trustees, governors, teachers and the Ministry of Education willing to embrace such a future. It’s about time someone went looking for the answers.
