Things I Don’t Believe

Posted on September 9, 2008 by barrydahl

During a recent presentation with a K-12 audience, I went through a bit of a rant (softer than most) about things that I don’t believe regarding the uses of technology in the K-12 system. My point of view was more as a parent of three children in the K-12 system, and less about my role as a Chief Technology Officer in higher education. This slide show has plenty of text to illustrate the points I wanted to make.

    Great post!
    You know, I also refuse to call myself a digital immigrant and always mention that in my presentations. I then call myself a digital parent… and then I show the audience my first computer: a ZX81 that pretty much looks alike an Asus EeePc 🙂
