Which actually brought me here. In a time where, as teachers, it feels like we're sometimes being beaten over the head with technology, it is nice to hear a viewpoint from the other side. I agree that in many cases, what people call tactile learning, is just touching a keyboard. It offers another approach, but sometimes it is more advantageous to just get those hands dirty.Mike Schillernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-59950859258443002102011-02-27T14:09:30.598-05:002011-02-27T14:09:30.598-05:00I don't think Gary Stager would argue with tha...I don't think Gary Stager would argue with that, because I don't get a sense that he would have paid much attention to what I'd said in the first place.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10956056168256756705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4956989639073843954.post-34117664035465412072011-02-27T12:33:33.861-05:002011-02-27T12:33:33.861-05:00Dear John,

It seems like we're on a similar wavelength. <br /><br />We use our netbooks often in class, but we also set them down and debate, discuss, draw, write, tie, sort, cut, clip, high-five and walk, among other things. <br /><br />You can't argue that we need to "engage the whole student" and then ask that child to use only a computer.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10956056168256756705noreply@blogger.com
