I haven't thought much about using other search engines. Thanks for the tips and direction.

I have an almost-kindergartener at home and I've been thinking a lot about the ways in which technology will be part of his education. I've been hesitant to use technology so far at home without understanding how it can/should fit in.

I also feel that collaboration is a very important part of the process when sharing/publishing information.

Perhaps focusing less on anticipating new technologies and more on flexibility/adaptability to different technologies?

Honestly, this made me cringe a little because it has almost become too easy. Anyone can put anything on the internet. However, I found myself nodding along with her comments here--just because you can, should you?--and the importance of sharing work responsibly.

I'm wondering how much value is placed on personal writing in middle/high school classrooms?

I find social media to be a very difficult place. The narrative is often controlled by what is "trending" and there is pressure to be part of the trending narrative. I think often about the extent to which people of all ages are consuming and reposting information without asking questions or doing research.

There's so much out there. Sun, 14 Jun 2020 11:56:56 -0400 https://nowcomment.com/documents/203637?scroll_to=1912755 https://nowcomment.com/documents/203637?scroll_to=1912755 Agreed. I often only click on the first 3-4 articles that pop up when I Google something. It is sometimes very difficult to find credible articles with an opposing or alternate viewpoint.

How many times have we all seen the "comments" section on a social media post/article or a text conversation go south? I'm wondering how we help students learn how to navigate these situations.
