Thing 16

Digital Natives speak out! The 1st and 3rd podcast seemed to repeat the same idea over... and over... and over. I got the point after 50 seconds - teach the way digital natives learn, not the way your grandparents learned!

Sir Ken Robinson could moonlight as a comedian. He had some great stories. My favorite quote by him was that "we should teach creativity like we teach literacy". I do think that we snuff out creativity with some of the ways we teach. Students need to be more autonomous!
