ULearn 2010: Keynote - Steve Wheeler

Transformation and Inspiration through Social Media

Teacher is the inspirer, not the social media

P   O   W   E   R   P   O   I   N   T
is so uninteresting!!!!

Trends!!!!
Mobile use!!!
Students have mobiles!!!!

Really???
BORED!


A time of change... when hasn't there been a time of change!  Let's get over it and get on with it.

"Teenagers send text messages and we ban them in schools"  WTF!!

Once again, we are being talked to about the fact that teenagers use mobiles, etc. 
Why can't we move to discussing ways of using the technology effectively?

Where's the TRANSFORMATION?

Where's the INSPIRATION?

If I weren't sitting fourth seat in from the aisle, I would be very tempted to leave.


Natives?  Immigrants?
Teenagers texting? 
How old are this guy's ideas?
