Design with forever in mind: Capturing Learning #iste10 presentation

I want more. Video? Audio? The feedback. There hasn't been a post on what people contributed during the preso, but I'm sure that's forthcoming.
The network was working extra hard just to get the presentation off
the ground (the wireless went out for me at least once during the
session). I will post the hashtag archive in a bit and the Drop.io
link to some cell phone reflections, but not too much more than that.
It was a pretty good session, but there were some limiting factors
that I will not be repeating for the Advanced Online Learning class. I
plan to archive the heck out of that class.
Are we changing district/school policies about cell phone use by kids in school?
To my knowledge, we don't have any unified district policies about cell
phones in schools. It is a site-based decision. I also know that many
teachers feel empowered to change the site-based decision within their
classrooms. I know I did. Cell phones in schools makes sense when you give
them a purpose other than just keeping in touch with friends. In most cases,
our high schools already have 1:1, we just make them keep their “computers”
in their lockers or backpacks.
