Perhaps the new education model should be 70% cloud work 30% small group F2F teacher time? #aiachatAHenrey at 08/03/2011 03:23 PM EST @JMOTA3 #aiachat sometimes an hour or an hour and half depending on the topic.cvandevere at 08/03/2011 03:23 PM EST that 30% time could be sincere and authentic if it wasn't 30 kids all day long but rather 10 kids for an hour? #aiachatAHenrey at 08/03/2011 03:24 PM EST @TheThirdTeacher why does it have to be one stationary location? why arent pop-up classrooms possible? #aiachatABoimila at 08/03/2011 03:24 PM EST both/and! RT @TheThirdTeacher: Is it possible that "schools" will get "flipped"? Learning away from school? social done in school? #aiachatUrbanverse at 08/03/2011 03:24 PM EST @ABoimila Can you describe pop up classrooms? I am picturing little pop up tents. lol. I have a 3 yr old. #aiachatAHenrey at 08/03/2011 03:25 PM EST I agree. Been a TA for 2 yrs. But how to improve?

Or will environments be fully immersive? #aiachatTheThirdTeacher at 08/03/2011 03:25 PM EST @cvandevere hey Craig, good to see you! just stopping in, picking up the tail of #aiachatUrbanverse at 08/03/2011 03:25 PM EST @ABoimila @TheThirdTeacher They are...and that's what I'm focused on designing currently.

Like computers at the desk? #aiachatmike_kohn at 08/03/2011 03:26 PM EST Q6 Computer labs are on their way out. No sense in having travel time when students can BOD or have laptop carts. #aiachatAHenrey at 08/03/2011 03:26 PM EST @Kourtnike smart point! But how? Should every public envi become a learning space? What would be the means? The limits? #aiachatGinaAlex at 08/03/2011 03:26 PM EST It is necessary that they are mobile...and they have been for years...just not necessarly applied in mass. #aiachatKourtnike at 08/03/2011 03:26 PM EST RT @perkinswill_EDU: Before we end, I must share efforts to rebuild classrooms in Joplin.

And the last time you went to a pencil and paper lab was??? #aiachatperkinswill_EDU at 08/03/2011 03:28 PM EST Just like in the workplace, the notion of a dedicated lab seems outdated in schools. Tech should be pervasive throughout the space. #aiachatmike_kohn at 08/03/2011 03:28 PM EST @GlennRowell1 They won't for much longer. Laptops and mobil devices are getting cheaper.
