Recently I read a great article from dangerously ! irrelevant and it inspired me to participate and give back my 2 cents.  Scott was challenging those in educational leadership to post a response to the following:  When it comes to education, what are 5 things that we have to stop pretending?

Here is my response:

When it comes to education, we have to stop pretending…

• that we need to be "trained" in person to learn the technology
• that we know what students are passionate about the same things we are teaching
• that teachers need the technology first
• that students don't have a voice and choice in their learning
• that replacing paper worksheets with digital ones will be any more engaging.
