Philosophy for Children
Posted by David Wees on May 13, 2011
I read this article today about philosophy for children, which was shared in last night's discussion about math in the real world. I thought it was pretty appropriate because my own son has started asking some difficult questions, and I'd like to find some more resources for exploring them with him. Obviously, I can give him my perspective on the issues, but I think it would be better to find resources which are more familiar to him.
Philosophy of Educational Technology
Posted by David Wees on Oct 18, 2009
In my teaching, I infuse technology through-out my lessons. Although I have a deep interest in technology going back as far as I can remember, I hope I am using technology purposefully and appropriately. It is important to me that technology not just be a fancy add-on, but that it should be a tool with which to help students understand the world.
