This document discusses strategies for managing a connected classroom that embeds technology in the curriculum in a meaningful way. It recommends that teachers act as facilitators in a student-centered classroom with ample computing resources. It also stresses the importance of digital citizenship, having plans for when technology fails, and ensuring networked access to hardware and media-rich resources. Teachers must adapt to change and facilitate creative, "just-in-time" learning while respecting intellectual property rights.

change it is the

the future is to create
it.

future - it comes
soon enough.

Why?
Why is a personal network important to educators?

56. The most important aspects of personal learning networks for me are
the ability to connect, communicate, and collaborate globally.
The network is always on 24/7/365 and always willing to share ideas
and offer help.
It is a way to build relationships otherwise not possible.
