Big Day in Queensland
By Nick Hodge | April 24, 2007
A big thankyou to Scot Steinhardt, Principal of Mount Gravatt High School. He runs a tight ship, and had a big day yesterday with "big names" arriving from all corners of Australia to get some of his time. Thanks, Scot. And live that dream!
To all the teachers who attended and answered my random questions. Thanks.
Also, thanks to Sean Tierney for hosting me - and providing some excellent guidance from a professional's perspective. Notes from my day are posted here, for comments.
Year 10 (and the Year 11s who subversively arrived, too) at Mount Gravatt: remember Astronauts and Princesses. You guys have the opportunity to do anything you want. First thing, is ensure that the Wikipedia entries for your school, and your local area are up to date and informative.
Later that night, Difference of Opinion on the ABC covered this whole area of the digital generation gap.
And even later, Chris Saad, Cody Robb and I had a long discussion on the debate. Mount Gravatt came up in the podcast. The world is small when its highly connected.
