As a teacher I have been deeply frustrated by administrative policies seeking to protect students from the Internet by blocking access, instead of allowing us to teach them how to use it safely and intelligently.
On first viewing this video I appreciated the rationalization that technology has taken society to a new place and that schools should embrace the powerful personal technology kids bring every day. I planned on showing it to my classes for discussion solely on this topic, but the end screen shows it to be embedded advertising! How clever of the phone maker to create a video for educators to use in the classroom--and how much more to discuss!
