More Notes From David Warlick

Will Richardson recently asked this question: How do you keep track of the snippets of info and quotes you want to remember? This is one of the things I do with my blog. The last few posts I've been cataloging notes from David Warlick, and here is one more... As I watched his pre-conference keynote to the 2007 K12online conference I took a few notes: On his son's multimedia project: "he learned how to create it because he's part of a network... because he's connected." David also talks about his son's game world and how they collaborate inside that virtual world. On the skills necessary in the information economy, David says, "information must compete for attention... the nature of information has changed. Our notion of what it means to be literate must also change." And in speaking about the opportunities for publishing which the web now provides, David notes that, "from the publishing perspective, many of our students are more accomplished than their teachers!"
