Part II Thu, 12 Oct 2006 09:45:02 +0000 http://weblogg-ed.com/2006/reading-and-writing-with-rss/#comment-6490 [...] As Mark van ‘t Hooft at Ubiquitous Thoughts writes, the “issues of teaching, learning and technology are similar all over the world.” It’s amazing to think that no matter how far away I am from like-minded educators in the physical world, we are all just a click away here in the virtual world. This is such an inspiring feeling for me, I am realizing more and more that I have to share this experience with my students. It’s not fair for me to be the only one with a “Personal Learning Network” in the classroom, I need to allow and assist my students in creating their own PLN as well, like Clarence Fisher has so successfully done with his students. Now that I’ve gotten my sixth graders blogging successfully, I really need to introduce RSS and get them started creating their own learning community. I realize now that if they stay at the level they are now, they are just one step above “doing the same writing, just placing it on the web” as Will Richardson points out from David Parry’s report. [...] [...] As Mark van ‘t Hooft at Ubiquitous Thoughts writes, the “issues of teaching, learning and technology are similar all over the world.” It’s amazing to think that no matter how far away I am from like-minded educators in the physical world, we are all just a click away here in the virtual world.

Not a bad thing. (I know this isn't originally my metaphor but maybe I've added a slant to it.)

There's always plenty of other feeds in my aggregator which are easier for me to read and pay attention to. Sorry, but you're often slipping through my attention net.

They love the ability to sort, to go from quick reading to saving things for later reflection and scanning. I also agree that RSS is important to establish the idea of audience and community with kids. Digital writing has "paper roots," but needs to "earn its wings" for our kids to see its true value to make learning different.
