Our students are Digital Captives.- Jamie McKenzie

“It is a real focus of this embedded curriculum, that the skills of using technology become the habits of students and teachers - that technology is called upon when needed the same way a dictionary or pencil has been in the past.”
This is not something that we teach in the 3rd grade, check it off, and go on. It’s not a skill. It’s habit. …and it needs to be a part of almost every conversation that we have in our classrooms.
-David Warlick “2 Cents Worth”
It needs to be the way schools do business.-Will Richardson, Learning 2.0 Conference, Shanghai
