Couldn’t resist trying to get a picture of this. Spider webs have always fascinated me.
2010 Horizon Report
by leb on Apr.28, 2010, under Education, Journey
I just downloaded the 2010 Horizon Report to my Dropbox for near-future reading. However, I did just read a summary of it here , written by David Nagel.
“For educators on a quest to help students grow as 21st century learners, this report is a must-read, one-stop source for information about emerging technologies that have the potential to transform education,” said Keith Krueger, CEO of CoSN.
The summary shares the critical challenges we face in education, as identified by the report:
- Inadequate digital media literacy training for teachers;
- Out of date learning materials and teaching practices;
- Lack of agreement on how education should evolve, despite widespread agreement that change is needed;
- A failure of education institutions to adapt to informal education, online education, and home-based learning; and
- Lack of support for or acknowledgement of forms of learning that usually occur outside the classroom.
I am anxious to read the report. I am equally as anxious to start doing something about it…its becoming my focus. There are many people out there much more entrenched in this work, doing amazing things. I am here to learn from you and with you. i am wondering how others might prioritize the above mentioned challenges. Where would you start?

Things do happen for a reason. All things. There are good things to come…and there are good things right here. I must remember gratitude, patience, positive energy, faith and how to quiet my mind so my soul can be heard.
