Howdy All,
It's good to be back in the virtual world with you fellow SB'ers, and thank you to the powers that be that arrange this wonderful, useful, and convenient PDLC credit for us.
Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, or maybe I'm secretly from Missouri, but I really want to hide and watch the teacher's class and how it is conducted. The video did say that she would spend a good amount of time teaching students to distinguish between good and bad information, and to me, that's where this idea sinks or swims. I keep having flashbacks to certain GT students in the past who had so many ideas, but could never get off the ground floor. As the Information Sherpa for my little mountain climbers (I would love to charge them 65,000 USD), I would really need to know my way around this social/educational networking. However, I think if we gradually introduce and use bits and pieces, by the time our students are in high school, I think they could be turned loose and expected to produce quality research.
If students can pull this off, surely librarians can too...I just hope I can pull it off.

It's a challenge for sure. I agree with your philosophy that students have to be carefully guided along the path of social connectivity in education. So Missouri...is that the "show me" state?
