Great Movie Clip on Digital Age and Change

I just found this wonderful video clip from the blog, From Toy to Tool: Cell Phones in Learning. I only wish more schools would change with the times. Too many classrooms around the country resemble classrooms from a century ago! Teachers leading instruction and students dutifully taking notes and absorbing material like sponges. Our schools need to change and realize that students no longer learn the same way they did decades ago. It’s time to get our students interacting, collaborating, and learning skills to be successful in the 21st century.  Employers are looking for creativity, self-confidence, effective communication, collaboration, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. Students should not be treated as sponges anymore!
