Principal embraces power of Twitter Eric Sheninger, the principal of New Milford High School, has tapped out more than 12,000 tweets since he joined Twitter — or about 13 a day. Now he's got more than 14,500 followers on Twitter from around the country. That's more than a "Today" show co-host and nearly as many as the U.S. secretary of education. His goal? While some skeptics may see a stream of 140-character updates as a time-consuming distraction, Sheninger ticks off the benefits for his school of roughly 700 students.

The former science teacher's zeal for the savvy use of new technologies will be on full display today in a conference called "Edscape," expected to draw more than 300 educators from the tri-state area to New Milford High School.

Élucubrations pédagogiques J’ai eu la chance, cette semaine, de passer 7 jours à Washington, dans le cadre du “Global Forum – Partners in Learning” organisé par Microsoft. Il s’agit, comme ils le définissent, d’une “coupe du Monde de l’éducation”, où se rencontrent plusieurs projets innovants. Compétition ou collaboration ? Vu de l’extérieur, on peut se poser la question de l’utilité d’un tel forum. Les projets présentés sont certes en compétition, observés par les lunettes évaluatives de plusieurs juges, qui examinent le travail de chaque enseignant sous un éclairage particulier (le projet permet-il d’ouvrir la classe à l’extérieur ? de favoriser une pédagogie collaborative ?
