Something you said is very curious. How can one school both immerse and ban? And you're right, the phrase the "nearly now" is so incredible. I try to explain to teachers how Web 2.0 tools change /twist/warp? time and space. I want to know more about how students who live in the "nearly now" can manage to do school in the "never now." Is that too harsh? Thanks for the comment, Denee. Something you said is very curious. How can one school both immerse and ban? And you’re right, the phrase the “nearly now” is so incredible.

We are immersing our students in technology in one classroom and banning it entirely in the next. I just wish I knew how to make school as relevant to my students as the "Nearly Now" they are living in. (I love that phrase!)

I struggle with how all the time. When I watch this video I get inspired, but wonder how. I can envision schools without walls. What I can't envision is how to get out of the walls we're already in.
