After reading The Future of Thinking: Learning Institutions in a Digital Age and “The Future of Learning Institutions in a Digital Age,” I was left feeling extremely optimistic and extremely frustrated. There were so many things to like about these reports, yet I found myself raging against many of the points the authors made. The upshot is that I think I’ve discovered that I’m not an extremist on either side of the technology in schools divide. As a result, texts that are extreme tend to irritate me, and I find myself wishing someone would take a more neutral (and maybe more realistic) stance. So, in honor of Cass Sunstein’s idea of the Daily Me (which, incidentally was not his idea but I like the way he used it), I’m going to let you choose which post you want to read: the post where I love these articles or the post where I don’t. If you liked these works, click the like button. If not, click the dislike button. Or maybe you want to live on the edge and switch it up. Whatever. Each will lead you to a post listing either the 5 reasons I like the ideas in these texts or the 5 reasons I dislike them.
