Web 2.0 tools are unreliable at best and unavailable at worst. They don’t work the way they did last week because of their constant feature updates. They don’t allow for us to own many of the things we create either. They are, in fact, the worst tools for collaboration that exist, except for everything else that we have tried.

This video makes the case that despite their shortcoming, Read/Write tools are the best way to create and share our work and realize Authentic Learning environments.

What should you do with those who are specifically anti-change, who will use false-negatives in order to try and stop movement on what you are trying to do? How should you go about shifting the conversation from miniature failures to the broader call for successful change?

Seriously, I’m asking.

I took a moment yesterday to reflect upon just how happy I am with a longer commute that gives me the ability to consider the challenges that lay before me. I intentionally parked further away to extend that reflection time. It was wonderful.

A teammate posed this question: What are the implications of not doing Blended Learning right? It really got me thinking abut the harm we can inflict by not having the right vision or being able to fully execute on that vision. Even with good intentions, are we still inflicting harm on an overloaded system if we don’t do it "right."

I pose the idea that the harm is in False-Momentum. But, how do we combat this?
