This document appears to be from a discussion about what skills and knowledge teachers need to be considered technologically proficient in 2013. It includes questions about whether it is acceptable for teachers to be technologically illiterate and what interesting educational technology projects participants would show teachers and parents. The discussion emphasizes the importance of reflection, critical thinking, and discernment when evaluating new technologies rather than just focusing on the technologies themselves. It also references comments made by others on the topics of technologically illiterate teachers and finding good primary/elementary education technology projects.

1. “What does a teacher need
to know and/or be able to do to
be considered ‘technologically

20. “In a world inundated by Tweets and 24-hour news
coverage, that precious time to think and reflect gives
words greater value.”
“Joy, anxiety and suffering can
all be communicated in silence-
indeed it provides them with a
particularly powerful mode of
expression.”

22. “By remaining silent, we allow the other person
to speak, to express him or herself, and we
avoid being tied simply to our own words and
ideas without them being adequately tested.”
“Silence also allows for
greater discernment about
what is really worth
listening to.”
