I am very excited about upcoming peer learning projects that I’m working on in 2012, including several for Packard grantees in India, Pakistan, and Africa as well as the e-Mediat project in the Middle East. The instructor’s role should be to facilitate this understanding for their students, not dump content on them.

A former superintendent of such a district, he explained the basic premise to me: each student, from kindergarten on, has a personal laptop. The schools have open wireless internet, so each student has continual access to the Web. To many of these folks, Bob's wired classrooms seem threatening.

At SXSW and facilitating a panel called A Global Discussion About Networked Nonprofits and Free Agents , I introduced myself with this photo of me and Lena, the master trainer from Yemen for the E-Mediat Project. His comment made me reflect over the past 32 years of working in the nonprofit sector.

We talked about Cambodia and one of the questions was (an excellent one), what do teachers need to think about if they are doing an over the web collaborative project with a classroom in the developing world. The question forced me to reflect on my experience last summer.

I had a wonderful break – filled with fun, family, walking, hiking, reading, quiet, and reflection. One annual ritual is to create “To Do/Not To Do/Reflection” notebook where I use modified bullet journaling to track my progress. Happy New Year ! How about you? I write down stuff I won’t do, a “no thanks” list.

The more we teach and judge based on laws, the less students and graduates will try to break them. The students designed and fabricated prototype pieces of an upcoming exhibition. None of these students had backgrounds in educational theory or museum studies. The graduate programs don't just offer false promises to students.

Is this one of those flashy third world technology demonstration projects where a prestigious organization and a digerati provide a wad of cash to impose a technology solution that gets a lot of media hoopla, but isn't sustainable? This project encouraged inmates to form singing groups and have temporary release to do performances.

Recurring donations also empower nonprofits with a sustainable revenue source to fund ongoing projects and programs. For example, it’s much more compelling to say that making a $25 monthly donation would allow your nonprofit to provide school supplies to 50 students than just asking your supporters to sign up to donate $25 every month.
