<p>The points in this slide show are a good starting point for a discussion about a new form of education &#8211; a rethink exercise about how we design new educational environments. Any serious learning environment architect (teacher)  needs to address these ideas as they move their practice from the status quo to what is needed. Thanks to <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/dharms">dharm</a> for bringing together these points from <a href="http://weblogg-ed.com/">Will Richardson</a>&#8216;s book, <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Blogs-Wikis-Podcasts-Powerful-Classrooms/dp/1412927668/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1198942520&amp;sr=1-1"><span class="sans">Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts, and Other Powerful Web Tools for Classrooms</span></a>. </em></p>

<p>A great book with wonderful windows on what is already being done, as opposed to what &#8220;might be&#8221; . . . the goal, I am sure, to spark the &#8220;what if&#8221; portion of the imagination in educators who see their work outside of the box (yea, cliche I know, but a classroom is usually nothing more than a big box &#8211; right?)</p>
