Nets in the Classroom

The lesson plans of today must reflect innovation and creativity because the emphasis in education today is so one sided on tests and test results. Lesson plans must incorporate these aspects of learning in order to foster critical, and analytical thinking. Critical thinking, and rational analysis are not addressed by the present day emphasis of taking tests. The connectivity that the world wide web provides offers collaborative resources and contacts that are wide ranging and amazing in scope.This global connection is one that I would emphasize in all of my lesson plans, as a way to connect students with the world at large.
