From Knowledgable to Knowledge-able

This online essay, From Knowledgable to Knowledge-able: Learning in New Media Environments by Michael Wesch from Kansas State University, sums up all of my current feelings on education and online learning. From his opening paragraph through his closing arguments he captures the essence of the pedagogical transition in which we all find ourselves - regardless of our personal desire for it to be taking place.

We should all be as encouraged by this time of transition and embrace the changes upon us with all our passion. If you are reading my blog, it is a safe assumption you have something to do with educational technology and eLearning. Please read this article.

I leave you with his closing paragraph:

The beauty of the current moment is that new media has thrown all of us as educators into just this kind of question-asking, bias-busting, assumption-exposing environment. There are no easy answers, but we can at least be thankful for the questions that drive us on.
