I realized that I have lots of Teaching mentors, but not enough Learning Mentors. Who do you look up to as a learner?

Sometimes I Forget: Or, The Things I Forgot and Remembered at #ipdx13

I haven’t been to a conference for a while as a participant, and today I tried to do just that. But, I realized just how many things I had forgotten in having these kinds of conversations. These are the things I forgot, some of which are good and some of which are decidedly not.

Please respond with what you have forgotten and remembered about Teaching and Learning.

Is Technology a "Home Language" for Learners?

I respond to a wonderful set of research from Peter Elbow brought up by Paul Allison that discusses how home languages can be better understood and used in the classroom. Paul (and I in this video) make the case that technology and online spaces can be thought of as a home language for our learners.
