I just read a really great post on REMOTE ACCESS on blogging and how that could change how we teach....maybe we should teach students how to read and use blogs as a resource.
I'm thinking that by doing this and teaching them to do this through an aggregator...we can teach them to think.
They would have to look at a subject from multiple blogs or perspectives and create their own ideas and thoughts...
Teach them to navigate blogs and we teach them to synthesize and make connections to what they read....
In essence we teach them to read and write for a variety of purposes....
This should be the new literacy...and I think by teaching literacy this way, we could enhance the "old" literacy of textbooks and novels
(please don't misunderstand me. I love textbooks and novels....but imagine how they could be enhanced by reading and navigating blogs about the same topics....)
