…like a bridge over troubled waters…
I’m on your side, oh, when times get rough, and friends just can’t be found
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down
Simon & Garfunkel, 1968
Doug Johsnon did that for me this week, when he made a public, although unnecessary apology on his Blue Skunk Blog about a posting that I took personal issue with. My respect for Doug as an educator, a leading-edge library-world thinker and just a great professional and personal role-model took a huge jump - and it was already high. I’ll be following the Blue Skunk Blog more avidly than ever…
The good news coming out of this whole flame-war debacle, is that our combined library/media/technology team met for a FULL Day today (with just a bit of tweaking to our schedule for a ProD day fortuiously already scheduled) and we made great strides forward in coming to common agreements on Essential Questions regarding (and Next Steps toward) 21st-Century Learning at ISB.
Watch for a post in the near future on some of the ISSUES we’re working on!
