Info on Kist....
When it come to the readings for this week, I was very shocked to find out that the author of our book didn't use too much technology in his classrooms at first. Thankfully he caught himself in the act he's against. I loved how he even said, "Not only did I need to "walk the walk," I needed to pick up the pace." I must say, I loved how he toured the U.S. schools to see how others were using technology in their classrooms to get a good idea of what was too much, what was too little, and what was just the right amount of usage of technology in the classrooms. I'm sure he got plenty of ideas of how he can use technology with his classes as well which always helps no matter how long you've been a teacher.

I have his first book, New Literacies in Action, if you are interested in borrowing it for the semester. (i know, who has MORE time to read, right?) But it's a quick read and interesting to see how other teachers use (or think they are using) technology and new literacies in the classroom.
