Wow!
Gil, I really don't have any problem with "...revolution didn't center
around technology..." at all. Indeed, the revolution must center around
the *learners*; technology, in any of its various forms (from pencils to
computers) is the term we use to describe tools to help in the facilitation
of learning. I may have said this here before, but I'll repeat it again: I
don't see teaching as anything but learning facilitation. Members of the
local teacher's union strongly disagree with me, which interferes with my
ability to perform some of my consulting activities, but the school my kids
now attend was founded by one of those union members that strongly agrees.
Can you point to any (hopefully English language) documentation on the
revolution you describe?
Many thanks for your post.
