The current atmosphere among education blogs is understandably different from the usual bantering. I have chosen a sampling of topics from several of my favorite ed-blogs as a screen shot comparison from the rest of the blogosphere:
Nancy White's commentary on Katrina is a refreshing change from so much of the news and abuse that is floating around the web and MSM...more of a come, let us reason together, Recovery 2.0 approach that will be needed for better use of the web during future disasters.Anne Davis breathes a sigh of relief over word from a fellow blogger at Random Thoughts.Ray Schroeder reports on the improving wireless carrier situation along the coast.Will Richardson posts amazement at the enormity of the interactive lists and the thought of being left in the dark (literally).ed-tech insider's most recent stories cover a displaced professor and the impact on education in the affected region.Alan Levine's comparison of how CNN vs. education move/process information should generate weeks of personal and professional reflection (be sure to read the comments!)It is just good to know that there is processing going on among people in education and technology. I doubt that any of these people would prefer that a disaster become a necessary catalyst for learning...but I am amazed at the learning that is taking place amid the discomfort and pain.
