As cute as the ToonDoos are, I like that you’ve decided to take them out of the AUP. I wonder, though, if you could get the students interacting with the AUP by asking them to create similar products for different […]

Your post highlights something that all tech integrators face, in my opinion: most issues involving technology aren’t really about technology at all. Laptops or cell phones might be how students misbehaved, but it […]

Short and to the point. Perfect. I love how it is pitched at the perfect level for lower elementary students. I also love how you started with the students and what they think it should cover. In this respect, it […]

Well done to you and your students! I just tweeted out a link to their website so hopefully they’ll get some love from the Twitterz.
I’m torn about the whole “just call it bullying” thing. On the one hand, I […]

“If we don’t teach our children to be alone, they will only know how to be lonely.” This is so true and so powerful.
You mentioned second language learners in your post. While communicating only online is […]

I love the rationale that starts this post. Connecting your AUP to your current Mission and Values only adds strength to the document. I think this document would go a long way in helping teachers, students and […]

This sounds like a great project to start the year with your students! I can’t wait to see some of the work that they come up with. This also seems like one of those projects that has so many links to other […]

It’s so easy to get caught up in the echo chamber that is the edublogosphere (yeah, I pulled that term out of retirement!). There is a lot of ‘preaching to the choir’ that goes on because we’re all in the same […]

I love the idea of the Digital Citizenship course. Is this something that is currently happening or one that you would like to see implemented? I’d like to see a similar course run at my school for the Grade 11 […]

“Finding the time” is a huge issue in every school. As a former math teacher, it’s been really hard for me to let go of content. But what’s more important for a student: being able to recite the quadratic formula […]

Hyperlinks, both reading and writing with them, is definitely a new literacy! While we all find ways to deal with them in our own ways, here are two strategies that work well for me:
1. Hover over the hyperlink […]

We are currently working on mapping (as best we can) technology integration at our school. Since we feel that that technology should/must be embedded in every discipline, it seems to follow that digital […]

When I think about organization online, the word that comes to mind is “tags”. With tags that are meaningful to you, organization is a whole lot easier! Using a social bookmarking service like Diigo or Delicious […]

Two things really stand out in this post for me:
1. ” I think we need to treat cyberbullying, just like we’ve always been treating bullying.”
2. “Schools should help build the community.”
The more things […]

Ben, thanks for sharing such a moving story. I think you are right on the money when you say “Building ethical communities in the real world helps foster and model ethical digital communities.”

You make a good point: if an employer still wants to ask me for my facebook password, even after finding all the positive things I’ve posted online, then they aren’t interested in my accomplishments at all. Even […]

Wow! That Forbes article really highlights the power of the data that is collected about individuals…
I think you’re spot on: If it’s online, it’s not private. And it doesn’t even need to be you who puts your […]

I am seriously troubled by employers who would use access to my private online spaces as a condition of employment. So are some Senators who think it might be illegal to do so.
I agree that it is private. If […]
