Digital Ethics: A Threshold Forum

The Summer 2007 issue of Cable in the Classroom's Threshold: Exploring the Future of Education - released in conjunction with the 2007 National Educational Computing Conference - features articles focused on the challenges and benefits of Web 2.0 in today's education environment, produced in partnership with the George Lucas Educational Foundation (GLEF). [And, if you'll be at NECC this year, be sure to join us and our cable industry partners at numerous presentations and exhibits.] In this podcast [MP3, 53MB], Dr. Ann Flynn, director of education technology for the National School Boards Association (and member of CIC's National Education Advisory Board ), with the assistance of Threshold's Ellen Ullman, moderates a panel that explores the challenges of guiding student behavior in a world of web-based interaction. Panel participants include: Jay Bansbach, program specialist in school library media for the Maryland State Department of Education and immediate past president of the Maryland Association of School Librarians ; danah boyd , a doctoral candidate in the School of Information at the University of California-Berkeley (who joined the conversation late); Terry Clark, assistant superintendent of instruction and technology in Bethpage Public Schools in New York (and a 2005 Cable's Leaders in Learning award-winning educator); and Tim Lauer , principal of Meriwether Lewis Elementary School in Portland. An edited transcript of this conversation appears as one of several excellent articles on this same topic on our site .
