John,
I beleive this is a MUST see for every educator. We need to stop talking about 21st century literacy and start living it in our schools and classrooms. I am hoping, for education sake, that this video has a viral reach. Thank you for making it a conversation and priority with your readers. I appreciate you including the links to each authors work. Great thinking-you continually make me smarter! Looking forward to hearing about what your readers think!

I think the process has already kicked off, Angela – as well as my post, see Greg Carroll too. More will follow, I’m sure!

Last week, at the ACfE Technology Outcomes launch, we saw Shift Happens – again – and that one about the monk and the book. This, I think, would have been a better choice because it focuses on the change we need to see in school, not just on the changing environment. If it too becomes a cliche, that will be no bad thing.

Glad you are enjoying the PSA. Please use it to start a conversation. However, please make sure you use the final version which has corrected credits. You can see it on our website — http://www.cosn.org or on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/user/CoSNLeader
