It was helpful information when I wrote an opinion column, last week (April 1, 2011) on Personalized Learning for The Tri-City News called, Let's Get Personal, But First, Let's Get Real. Keep up your amazing work!

We need to own the concept as educators, not inherit digitally personalized educational pathways from a corporate force looking to profit from public education systems.<br /><br />All my best,<br />PhilPhil McRaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12958754952219520405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668205114513391831.post-21857643468637346302010-10-20T20:56:17.709-07:002010-10-20T20:56:17.709-07:00Phil - great article.

You hit on something pretty important with respect to digitally supported learning "digital spaces have the potential to limit students to only the content that they want to see, hear and read about". I have worried about this - I read "The Dumbest Generation" and worried more. There seems to be an argument for forced learning to experience what we might not choose ourselves. Students may miss out on a gift by personalizing their learning (aka narrowing their focus, path, experiences).<br /><br />British Columbia has not yet officially communicated on this topic. We believe this will occur sometime in November so stay tuned...<br /><br />I also enjoyed your "futures" article. The future is an interesting place to go!Brian Kuhnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12565982072371979984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668205114513391831.post-65814672596994224622010-10-20T10:51:50.910-07:002010-10-20T10:51:50.910-07:00Hi Brian,

I was also just on a panel with the Calgary Board Chief Superintendent and Dr. Stephen Murgatroyd discussing this at times contentious issue. <br /><br />http://www.teachers.ab.ca/Publications/ATA%20Magazine/Volume-91/Number-1/Pages/The-Politics-of-Personalization-in-the-21st-Century.aspx<br /><br />This fits with another piece that I did on horizons of technological change to be included in the national press kit for Canada's Media Awareness Week 2010.<br /><br />http://www.medialiteracyweek.ca/en/press_articles10_Forecasting.htm<br /><br />What is happening in British Columbia with the terminology and how it is being framed?<br /><br />Regards,<br />Philip McRae, Ph.D.<br />pmcrae[at]ualberta[dot]caPhil McRaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12958754952219520405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668205114513391831.post-18385480971722265492010-09-08T08:25:37.051-07:002010-09-08T08:25:37.051-07:00Hi Brian,

Usually we also include a short bio and a link to the other blog. It's a good way to introduce our readers to other similar blogs and helps get some fresh thinking into our site.<br /><br />If you want to proceed, you can email me on gmail. (I'm crudbasher at gmail ) If this doesn't sound like something you want to do, then that's fine too!

I had to double check the name on the top because it sounded like something I would have written!<br /><br />I was wondering if you would be interested in exchanging guest posts? I think our interests are very similar and your thinking would be very welcome on my blog.
