Can the Internet Replace School?

Why school when there is the internet? 

Poem: What’s the Railroad to Me?  by Henry D. Thoreau 

Statement of the Whole: Even as internet technologies provide more and more “educational” opportunities, schools are seeking to remain relevant to the educational process.  Are there things only a brick and mortar school can do?  Why have all the trouble and expense of schools if we can simply Google our way to an education?  Join in the conversation with Jason and Steve.

Poem: none 

Statement of the Whole: Fun is a fun word to define.  It is even funner to try and inculcate into today’s educational world.  Jason and Steve play around with the word for a while in this episode on how enjoyable learning can be and what the expectations for today’s classroom imply about good learning and teaching.  Come join in the fun; you may be surprised by the experience.
