9:59	CFoote - Welcome to panel at Tech Forum with David Jakes, Helen Mowers, Clarence Fisher, Miguel Guhlin

10:00

CFoote -

@djakes what does it mean to be well educated in the 21st century?

10:02

CFoote - Discuss this comment via a David Warlick Tweet-- Paul Houston: "people want schools to be better, but not different."

10:02

CFoote - Is this true? How does web 2.0 make schools better?

10:03

CFoote -

Miguel--we start working on change, but people leave and then change falls apart

10:05

CFoote -

Finding a model that works for you is difficult. These adult professional conversations help change the culture.

10:06

CFoote - That is Helen Mowers -- one of the Tech Chicks, speaking. She's great!

the lady sounds like Lucy Gray -- who is it please??

CFoote - Clarence Fisher -- As parents we think maybe kids have to "go through" what we did. Web 2.0 is not a magic wand. Some kids hate some of the tools, it's not a panacea.

FINALLY -- someone is admitting this. Tech does not FIX ALL

but yes, it gives more opportunites

10:10

CFoote - I just talked ;) sorry I stopped narrating

10:11

CFoote - we're talking about how to make schools better and role of web 2.0. I think web 2.0 does have a "key"--it's more grassroots, and more democratic so I think it speaks to students being more powerful

10:11

CFoote - someone said they think that we learn how schools can be better is from students

10:11

CFoote - someone is raising the "outside" community using testing as a measure and how does this make this discussion irrelevant in the real world.
