I have to say that the day’s session was definitely galvanizing.

Surprisingly to me, the thing that has really taken off is that people here got fascinated by RSS and the possibilities of using that themselves as learners, and also of using it with students.

Hope your efforts go well also!

I came across this post while reading Scott McLeod’s Dangerously Irrelevant. I had the opportunity to hear Will speak at Chris Lehmann’s school two weeks ago, and I can attest to the butterflies. Leaving the school, which I unfortunately had to do after only one day, my colleague and I spoke the entire ride back to New Jersey about how we could implement and when we begin.

Between the timeliness of Will’s ideas and the nature in which they apply to us first as learners and second as teachers, I came away ready to begin helping my staff decipher the myriad content available to them on the web. Plus, I better understood the need to teach my students how to begin to decode the information they are presented with.

Hope everything goes/went well.

Cheers.
