Flattening Classrooms From Japan to Latin America

Editor's Notes

  1. My goals for the presentation – leave with a connection- the star of a PLN, create a tweet for the presentation hastags #flatclass #triAssociations#Mexedchat #adeInspire you to createMake prove the power of a PLN
  2. What about education keeps you up at night and makes you get out of bed in the morning?
  3. Overview of the reasons why we need to harness Web 2.0 technologies for learning. Soon whoever can do things cheaper or faster will get the job. We need to teach creativity and entrepreneurship.
  4. “Schools have to prepare students for jobs that have not yet been created, technologies that have not yet been invented and problems we don’t know will arise.” PISA Andrea Schleicher With few exceptions geographical distance and political boundaries no longer divide the world in terms of economic activities
  5. Flat Fifteen Challenge, Ongoing online collaborative projects
  6. Flat 15 Challenge and Virtual Book Club 2013
  7. Mark Hurst, Effective Conferences are no longer just about delivering training but also about leveraging connections that are made during the rest of the year.
