Comments on: The Benefits of Going Global In Your Chair http://mscronk.edublogs.org/2008/04/08/the-benifits-of-going-global-in-your-chair/ Learning and using Web 2.0 in the Technology Classroom Fri, 25 Sep 2009 12:39:45 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 hourly 1 By: margarland http://mscronk.edublogs.org/2008/04/08/the-benifits-of-going-global-in-your-chair/comment-page-1/#comment-187 margarland Mon, 26 May 2008 17:02:18 +0000 http://mscronk.edublogs.org/2008/04/08/the-benifits-of-going-global-in-your-chair/#comment-187 You've taken me back to when we first learned about the world through PBS broadcasts. Now at the click of a mouse or the touch of a key pad we have access to an abundance of information that we have to navitagate our way through and then validate its worth. I too enjoyed the title of your article. It reminded me of the times I have turned to the computer for information for personal and professional reasons, and then challenged me to do it more. I do not access it enough and share it enough with my students. I've already bounced to other sites as a result of reading your articles, and have found some new ideas I can use next year with my students. Glad I found this!

I'm learning so much in recent weeks. I've been teaching computing for a long time, and I am only starting to re-discover the amazing potential the field offers. We are in such amazing times and so few people even are aware of it as it happens all around them. Have you seen Michael Wesch's video on Web 2.0? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gmP4nk0EOE The video came out a little over a year ago, and went viral. I've had the privilege of meeting him, and plan to take his graduate level course next spring on digital ethnography. Exciting stuff, this Web 2.0, and I still have much to learn.
