One of the biggest things standing in the way of student technology usage in schools is adults’ fear.
Over at the Blue Skunk Blog, Doug Johnson posted a message from our mutual friend and Internet safety guru Nancy Willard that described all of the fearmongering that she’s seeing as she travels the country. In the comments to Doug’s post, John Pederson said that there’s no ‘sticky’ message to counter the fearmongering.
So Doug’s sponsoring a contest. Come up with the best ‘sticky’ message and win a prize from Doug. All submissions are due November 1 so get yours in soon!
