back from hiatus
I haven’t exactly been sitting around twiddling my thumbs, but once out of the habit of posting, it’s hard to get back in. Last weekend I attended the Patterson Research Conference in Washington DC to explore issues in education since Brown v. the Board of Education. Apparently, not enough has changed. There I presented a poster on digital equity with an emphasis on guiding students, learners, anyone to develop content that is culturally relevant to their lives and experiences as well as their community. In practice, this would include projects such as digital storytelling (a popular buzzword right now), video, creating websites of community resources and information.
By the time I got back from the conference, I was in high speed catchup for the next week. So I will be back to reflecting on Habermas tomorrow…
