Being in education for 20 years you come to realize that students learn in different ways. Technology is the wave of the future and I do agree we waste too much paper, however, not all things are best done online.

But I agree with Nate and a few others. Flexibility is important! The concept of paper conveying a finality is just a matter of perspective.

I get tons of communication on wasted paper daily but there is a clean side on most of those memos, letters home, ETC Re-using those papers is the green thing to do. Paper lends itself to many activities that the online medium does not and vice-versa. For this teacher, organization of all of those papers is overwhelming. In the dynamic environment of a true place of learning, if we are in the moment, papers are lost. I hate the time wasted looking for those papers. With an online medium, even lost ideas and creations can be retrieved. It works wonders for that classroom which may be deemed as a scattered by the observing autocrat but may otherwise be the real thing they claim to be looking for, dynamic learning. For my part, the online medium keeps me feeling organized while allowing my students and I to think together, learn together, and create. I just wish I had a computer at every desk rather than a cart or a lab. Perhaps the billlionare boys club could fund that.Stefaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00305598979494455736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-72175198040952894832011-01-28T15:34:48.167-05:002011-01-28T15:34:48.167-05:00Ideas written on paper are not necessarily static....Ideas written on paper are not necessarily static. But your larger point is well taken. The collaborative venture you speak about is more dynamic if only because it is more broadly accessible in the online medium and invites participation that is more immediate too. And this makes possible different ways to give expression to thinking.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10643790858112683644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-79339746772517223452010-06-26T11:07:10.525-04:002010-06-26T11:07:10.525-04:00Pocket notebooks + pen don't need batteries.

But I have been working as a copywriter for years now and I find that I can't read as well online, that my eyes get all wonky, that I feel my mind does not concentrate as well when i work online, that I am prone to surf, wander, and get lost in all the colors and lights. I often have to print my work to see the errors. Some very deep animal part of me feels that working on a computer and bathing in wireless constantly is bad for me. Perhaps I am a luddite and destined for the human trash heap but you must have some empathy for folk like me.Erik Lundehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09812683788391442204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-51187238558346334382009-06-17T11:00:12.522-04:002009-06-17T11:00:12.522-04:00I think that kind of flexibility is important.

I personally have a problem reading much more than 2 or 3 pages of text online, while its easy to read 200 to 300 offline.<br /><br />I also find that getting writing started with pen and paper is easier for me than using a word processor. I like the ability to sketch out my ideas on paper first...even as I dislike having to re-transcribe it once I'm done.<br /><br />Great post.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01262155209374329014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-763888475457371442009-02-09T16:58:00.000-05:002009-02-09T16:58:00.000-05:00You are so right!"It's not paper I'm against.I'm a...You are so right!<BR/><BR/>"It's not paper I'm against.<BR/>I'm against the static idea of knowledge that paper so often represents.<BR/>That's not where the future is."<BR/><BR/>I hope you don't mind if I quote you.:) L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10112786913482066009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-52592595400515979082009-02-06T10:32:00.000-05:002009-02-06T10:32:00.000-05:00I use Blogging and Wikispaces in my middle school ...I use Blogging and Wikispaces in my middle school scoical studies classes.
