“Experiences in order to be educative must lead out into an expanding world of subject matter, a subject matter of facts or information and of ideas. This condition is satisfied only as the educator views teaching and learning as a continuous process of reconstruction of experience.” — John Dewey, Experience and Education (1938)

Brigitte,
Thanks for your comments at CIC on how we can incorporate technology into our classrooms and how kids are writing more because of blogging and the like. I’m enjoying reading your blog posts.

Jennifer,
Thanks for your comment. Glad you’re enjoying the reading.

I am really interested in how modern technology and “everyday literacies” can help change the social paradigm that exists. I noticed from the above comment that this is something you may have written?

Yes, I have written on digital literacies before, though I’m not certain if that writing survived the transition to this blog.
