[LM_NET] 21st Century Literacy

[Keith Schroeder <keitschr@HSSD.K12.WI.US>]

Reflect on 21st Century Literacy and Digital Youth Research Report

Inspired by an educational theory developed in the 20th century by social 
constructivist Lev Vygotsky, the Blog of Proximal Development might sound a tad 
stiff and academic. Don't let the name fool you. Written by Canadian teacher Konrad 
Glogowski, this blog is accessible, insightful and conversational. Concentrating on 
adolescent literacy and technology, Glogowski explores a wide range of topics, 
including how Web 2.0 tools can aid classroom instruction and professional 
development. Recent posts include a discussion of his travels with Teachers Without 
Borders and a virtual exhibit created using Second Life software.
