How long have you been in Peru?<br/><br/>The Mabry students and teachers - the Mabry learning and doing community - is a really powerful model. I hope they're reading that they taught two teachers to change! Wow, Chris, I thought you were in one of the Carolinas. How long have you been in Peru?

The Mabry students and teachers – the Mabry learning and doing community – is a really powerful model. I hope they’re reading that they taught two teachers to change!

This is posted not at NECC, but at Apple Learning Interchange, by the way.

I’m checking out their website’s collaborative outreach set-up. Interesting, interesting, interesting school. In Marietta, GA, to boot. I lived there briefly. I’m surprised.

It really resonated with me when he asked when we are going to ask kids to contribute something meaningful–when they are in college? married? having kids?

Why can’t we ask them now?

Very powerful stuff.

Thanks for sharing the link. I had liveblogged it but didn’t realize the video was up on NECC now and I missed the ending.

It's loading now. As for your "minor quibble," is that claim made anywhere? If so, I agree with you. At the same time, though, the technology is one heck of a toolkit for extending the reach of that meaning and change to the larger world, yes?
