So many of the educational discussions these days are touting the newest technologies (many of which I embrace). Too many though, I fear, are willing to abandon tried and true "old school" pedagogical strategies in an attempt to incorporate the latest and greatest. Just because it's new doesn't inherently make it better. This video is a comical reminder that some old technologies and old strategies are worth keeping. Let's keep some paper in the educational system.
You've more than likely seen this already, but I think it is worth sharing. I love technology. I love using it in the classroom. But it is just a tool - a crap teacher with a laptop is still a crap teacher. I firmly believe that there is room for the traditional as well as the innovative. Enjoy:)
