PLN week 7-1

This week I read an article called "Wikinomics: Let your Students Talk to Don Tapscott" by Viki A. Davis, and what I thought mattered from this article is how students voices being heard.

This article was about how this one author by the name of Don Tapscott, is asking student for their thoughts on their experiences with education and learning. How this is good for our students that she teaches to be heard and to open a whole new eye up for education and educators. There is this forum that every student is able to share their experiences with him for his new and upcoming book on http://en.discuss.takingitglobal.org/6909.

I think this is a good idea, someone writing a book on what students in our world today are being thought and what they think and ways they think that it could change for the better. I personally don't like some of the ways that some of my teachers in the past have approached learning and teaching. All teachers have a little room for improvement in their strategies to teach their students. It was also cool that if you comment on this thing than you have the chance to be quoted in his soon to come book, I think that is so cool.
