Summary

My most popular Facebook status update ever. Over two dozen comments and counting...
Lisa Velmer Nielsen Looks like I rubbed off on this school leader who said in our grant eval report-Perhaps you could encourage the Chancellor to remove his ban of cell phone use because it is a good way to have students use technology to produce better educational outcomes. Carolyn , Josh , Juliette , Marc Prensky, Jason might appreciate this.Yesterday at 10:57pm · Comment · Like / Unlike

That's all fine and I agree but you have to remember who signs your check!

I don't advocate that anyone not follow a mandate, but I do advocate for enlightening, inspiring, and informing my boss. I also hopeful I work for someone who believes he may be able to learn something from his employees and celebrates their voice. I think one day in the not too distant future it will seem unfathomable that we banned students from bringing their personal learning devices to school.
