15. Products George Hall Elementary Wetpaint Site The antebellum mansion was decorated for Christmas with golden magnolia leaves and sugared fruits. It was breathtaking and we learned so much about colonial life from our tour guides. Even after the end of slavery, the adoption of segregation laws kept life in the United States divided. The museum was inspiring. The students had a chance to touch and feed many of the animals. Everyone enjoyed learning how the farmers take care of everyone and everything on the farm.

31. Currently, the number of text messages sent and received every day exceeds the population of the planet. Remote Control for Your Life Think of the number of cell phones that are Internet capable! Imagine with me how we can leverage that accessibility in the classroom! But NOT just for email or surfing the Web– mobile learning, when it truly arrives will be a way to do things we couldn’t do before.

32. It is estimated that 1.5 exabytes (1.5 x 1018) of unique new information will be generated worldwide this year. That’s estimated to be more than in the previous 5,000 years. Knowledge Creation

33. For students starting a four-year technical or higher education degree, this means that . . . half of what they learn in their first year of study will be outdated by their third year of study.

45. What Is An Online Learning Community? Much of the learning currently happening on the Internet comes from self-motivated individuals with a common interest and a desire to interact with others who share the same interest (Wenger, 1998). The focus is on interaction…

47. First, with several hundred of us from all corners of the field, we have a collective pulse on everything that's going on in education and teacher leadership. Second, and just as important, our interactions are daily, even hourly. We are not prisoners of time and location. We can instantly connect with one another to get insight, practical advice, and language to use while working with teachers. I've lost count of the number times I've used something I learned from the community when working with teachers, administrators, or schools. ABPC Participant

48. The invaluable technological knowledge gained from this experience is the most important aspect of the program. With this knowledge, I am now able to engage students and expand their technological literacy as well. Amy Lowe George Hall Elementary The professional dialogue that evolved in our VLC from the Elluminate sessions has been very purposeful. Also, the sharing of tools and how different teachers have used them has helped us to determine our growth goals. Dottie Montgomery Winterboro School This experience has helped me grow more professionally than just about anything I have experienced in a very long time. I feel more confident about myself and more inspired. I have been teaching many years. Though I considered myself an excellent teacher, I have not been where I should be in regards to moving forward in this 21st Century. I now feel as if I am on my way!!
