Week 7

I chose to read the November article, in which was about the school getting wireless internet. I enjoyed the article very much, because I wondered to myself before read the article, why do they need wireless internet. The answer to this schools reason was that our society demands it. When you really think about how useful the wireless internet is and how much the students are getting out of it, then you appreciate it. I believe that students are really benefiting from it. It will offer them a way to use the internet more efficiently. It will provide the students will more resources.
If you think about what todays most widely used research tool, of course, it is the internet. I believe that schools that provide wireless internet is certainly increasing the range of resources to their students. I would love to teach at a school that offered wireless internet, because not only are the students benefiting, but the teachers are also.
I loved this quote from his blog:
We are moving from:
“do your own work” to “work with others”
“just in case” to “just in time” learning
“hand it in” to “publish it.”
