Educators, here is a video of our future students, Please Pay Attention. But of course you will have to watch this at home or on your mobile device. Because it is blocked at your school location.  I will see if I can find it on Teacher Tube and post it later. If you watch the video carefully you will notice that the child is multi-tasking..listening to music and then scrolling through the pictures to show one of the pictures to her parents.

Sorry the video is not posted on Teacher Tube.  I will check again later this week.

Interesting use of tools... Another that I saw from Brian Bridges blog deals with pre-literacy software from Penguin Books for the iPad - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QCAPv-IKuU

Digital Natives?

I guess learning skills for the 21st Century is not educational.  I guess learning to associate icons with grouped objects is not educational.  May be it's just improving fine motor skills.  Where is John Dewey when you need him?
