Photo in Flickr - CC "by/nc" license - Mr.GluSniffer. It made me think of the Berkman lecture I heard called " Legal Education in the Networked World " where there was a hot debate about whether laptops in the classroom were a good or bad thing. That could just be me and my own laptop induced add.

On Friday, I'm doing Chinese New Year lessons at Harry's and Sara's respective classrooms on Friday. I didn't want to mess with installing (and unstalling) SKYPE on the computer so I could call Nick in Hong Kong as we view his flickr photo set and he could answer questions. I know just enough about the hardware to be dangerous.

Photo from public photos tagged with macarthur in NMC flickr stream. The environment for learning is no longer in the classroom and its online, and outside of school. Dr. Mizuko Ito made the point that digital learning is happening primarily outside fo the classroom and in more of a social and play context. NMC Flickr Photos.

Photo from Kate in Flickr Social Signal Open House in TechSoup Office last week I'm playing catch up here on a bunch of Second Life stuff happening over the past week that I didn't want to let slip through my fingers: Social Signal held an open house in Second Life to welcome their new virtual worlds manager, Catherine Winters , to Social Signal.

Last week, I had my first serious experience with useful back channels at a conference ( WebWise ), and it taught me some lessons about how back channels might be used effectively as a learning tool in museums and other experiential venues (like conferences and classrooms). The back channel isn’t just a social space.
