Another Blog to Check Out: Speed of Creativity

Moving at the Speed of creativity

Wesley Fryer's Moving at the speed of creativity is a great source for new on technological learning, as well as other quirky bits of information. He takes the stand point of a teacher through some of the same topics that I have covered. If you are looking to learn through open sourcing or happen to be a teacher who is looking for a way to spice up your classroom, give this man’s blog a look through.

Reasons why I like his writing:

  • We both have very similar opinions on education technology; his however is coming more from a teacher's standpoint where mine is a learning standpoint. It gives a nice look at both sides. 
  • The man can make a connection out of anything, I mean it anything. After reading a few articles I can honestly say he's a legend at bouncing off tangent rambles back into comfortable on topic conversations as if they were meant to be there.
There are many more reasons, but I won't dredge on, point after point. Mainly because I want to talk about one specific post. This post is titled "Schools are no longer the knowledge gatekeepers". Wow, straight to the point. This article talks about how in today's society schools and teachers need to redefine themselves so that they can keep up with technology. He goes on to talk about Google, and the fundamental restructuring of education. It may seem like an impossible task but somehow it must be done if we want to advance as a society.
