Here's some of my takeaways/quotes and who said them:

@timjeffries
I think classrooms have a place still, we use them as a safe space to debrief what we've learnt out in the city.
if you don't know what ur doing with tech or don't believe what you are teaching, they'll know
Students know that teachers don't know everything (who possibly could?). So why pretend? Learn together
I think integrity is really important. Particularly teenagers have great bullshit detectors.

@zerostrategist
think when education becomes more decentralized, it becomes more accessible to other people who normally can't/don't participate
power shifts to the students, it reemphasises relationships in learning.
web 2.0 presents a unique opportunity to humanize teachers & thus make materials more accessible to students
While some need to write more to learn, others need to listen, or see or apply the material in different settings.
Also remember every individual student has their own learning style, some based on different combos of experience

@ehon
tailored to small niche rather than big generalise lecture. creates more diversity, build more individual potentials.
i think the shift is for students to learn to do – rather than to learn 'about'.
physical attendance at lectures is still deem important to traditional academics.
academics reported easier to reach n engage students but most academics couldnt be bothered to learn to use it
great n quick way of sharing resources but mixed rxns. Some students don't like academics access their private life.

@tomjd
here's some great examples of using cell phones for literacy http://bit.ly/503IXF. Mobile + social tech critical 2 edu

@socialedge
Classrooms key @ Digital StudyHall video tech extend reach of skilled teachers into underprivileged classrooms http://bit.ly/8AV8Oc
No classroom @ Khan Academy-900 videos YouTube-w/6 million views-arithmetic to calculus, chemistry, physics http://bit.ly/8Kf4cR

@memeshift
Educator's job is to shed light on the learning goal, but encourage individual paths to that.
brilliant example on teaching kids about the internet #twitterkids http://bit.ly/6dAfd1
