Digital Media and 21st Century Learning

Is digital media a part of your classroom? Should it? With so much attention and work going into cellphones and handheld devices, do you allow these in your school? Are they banned, much like illegal substances and weapons? Are digital devices in the same category as drugs and guns? Are they that threatening?


PBS has a great video on Digital Media: New Learners of the 21st Century. Their goal is to present real life examples of the impacts digital media have on education. Watch chapter one and stay tuned for premiere date (2.13.11).
