If we are to foster this growth and expansion into the collaborative educational networks that could be derived from the same energy that drives social networks, administrators have to be educated first.

In fact, there is a bit of urgency around all this - we are really into a digital renaissance! Students have told us that as educators we "just don't understand" what their socially networked life is really like. We need to stop and ask students about this world. This is absolutely spot on.

I was thinking about your comments this afternoon - your statement about learners being left without a model hits home. So much of learning "to be" (studio model that Clarence Fisher talks about) requires watching, observing, and following the examples of others. Instructors/teachers have long been models that provide learners with the skills to relate to the world - how to think, write, analyze issues, think critically, etc. Today, connection-forming (or network-creation) is critical, yet the absence of role models means learners are forming networks on their own (which isn't bad at all), but it is done without a particular educational focus (or in many cases, a lack of critical thinking or information literacy). In the end, they form networks...but do the networks they create enable them to effectively contribute to society? If you're interested, perhaps we should talk to Jeff/Dave at edtechtalk about having a podcast conversation on this subject... Hope things are going well...Good luck with your superintendent presentation tomoro! Hi Will…great thoughts!
