New Blog

Welcome to my first blog. I hope to post questions and start a discussion about issues that are universal to teachers of 21st century learners. The students of today are very different from students of years past - in both good and not so good ways. These young people have grown up with technology as an integral part of their everyday lives.  It has given them an extraordinary comfort level with technology that will allow flexibility as the world changes. On the other hand, it has also created a dependence on technology, an expectation of instant gratification and impatience with anything that is difficult or not entertaining.
