Learning 2.0 and Schools of Education

21st Century Education, learning June 17th, 2008

For a few different purposes, I’m working on a “manifesto” of sorts and could use some help.  I suppose it’s not a coincidence that I’m using a blog to ask for guidance/assistance in my own learning and knowledge creation.  But, I’m looking to produce a narrative (a white paper?) that synthesizes the information that is “out there” related to my own understanding of Learning 2.0 and to advocate for a new teaching/learning paradigm for Schools of Education.  Thus, I’ll be bringing together ideas and information such as, but not limited to, connectivism, personal learning networks/environments, rhizomatic learning, etc. and then posing challenges to and recommendations for Schools of Education.  I suppose the question I’m attempting to answer is “What is the place and/or role of Schools of Education in the face of new learning paradigms?”

If you have any ideas, thoughts, comments. resources, links, etc., I’d be GREATLY appreciative.  Thanks in advance!
