This week we were looking at several different topics. One of these topics was RSS readers. The link to my shared items can be seen here. I have a feeling that with tools like RSS readers, teachers will truly be able to move toward being the facilitators of knowledge rather than the "font of knowledge". For many educators this will be a total paradigm shift where educators will need to be able to modify what they use to teach almost as quickly as new information becomes available.
We also used learned about Creative Commons licensing. We were to use what we learned about these licenses to put a usage license on the images we displayed on Flickr. The pictures that I shared can be found here.
I agree that information will need to change quickly as new information is developed. This is something that I know a lot of teachers aren't doing. We are stuck teaching the old ways because we have already planned for them. How do we manage to stay ahead of the curve and make sure that we are not only informing our students of the most current information, but also creating a lesson that reinforces that concept?
