A belated thanks for your very interesting note on computers
and classroom cultures. Aside from the neat additional refs, two points
stood out for me:
1: When the WWW is the medium, the whole school may be the unit. At least
there is a lot more "leaking" across intra-school borders. Sounds very
plausible.
2. High schools may change faster. I think this is related to #1. In our
afterschool work, it is the older kids who get more into the WWW in
general. Younger kids get involved when we scan art or post photos so that
they are real producers whose work is responded to from the outside, but
they are not ready for some of the expansive potentials that classroom
teachers want them to get in to. I surmise.
