Beyond the required reading for this course, some of you may be interested in checking out more detailed discussions. Allan Collins and Richard Halverson have an excellent book called Rethinking Education in the Age of Technology. Here’s a thoughtful point they make in Chapter 1-

“… schools have kept new digital technologies on the periphery of their core academic practices. Schools often provide computer labs, tech prep courses, and computer literacy and programming courses to help students learn about technology, but do not try to rethink basic practices of teaching and learning”

What are your thoughts on this? Does any of this resonate with you? Do you find that tech sometimes lives on the periphery? To what degree do you see your colleagues or peers re-thinking their approach to teaching and learning in light of these technologies?
