I was reading Lowering Higher Education by James E. Côté and Anton L. Allahar recently and was intrigued by their chapter on Technologies.  In it they discuss the concept of Digital Natives and whether or not they require a different style of teaching or have a different understanding of learning.  Do Digital Natives require a more technologically oriented teaching method in order to be engaged?

So, here’s my prediction: in the next 2-3 weeks Sony will announce a new ebook reader. It will be touch screen. It will be a pearl e-ink display. And it will retail for under $180.

So it looks like I was a bit premature in my last post.  Sony is bringing out a new reader this year... but it's not until September :(

New Sony Reader?

So I just realized today that both Kobo and Nook have new editions out.  And Kobo's is selling for $139.  Looks like the Kindle 3 is almost to its one year milestone, and Kindle now has a new ad-supported version (not touching that one with a ten foot pole).

Me On a Grave Stone

Submitted by admin on Tue, 02/22/2011 - 11:47

Wow, came across this online: Grave Stone for Noah Arney and Eva Arney

That's odd.  Apparently there's another Noah Arney, spelled the same way, who died two years before I was born.  Oh Google, you find the weirdest things.
