Renae,
Great technology use questions! We are teaching in the 21st Century to 21st Century students, so I think there is no question as to the importance of learning with technology. I know that we have not figured out all the use "problems" yet, but our students will use the technology tools with or without us. I for one want to “join them.”
Sharing the SWBS on a blog or wiki would let all students learn from each other.

Thanks for your comment, Margo. I read a quotation about 21st century literacy that defined it as "the ability to learn, unlearn and relearn." I think that definition is describing the impact of technology on literacy, don't you?
