Dave,

Right, right. And we don't just want them to USE technology. We
want them to use it in thoughtful ways to explore their own
thinking--and to present arguments that will cause others to think.
Turning back to Jeff's point, I know that this is precisely what he
meant--that that youtube was a start--a statement of the problem--but
it failed to lay out a solution. And let's face it, we can all
identify a problem. Genius is in the workable solutions!
Best,
Toni
