Appreciated our short discussion about what it takes to move students from this expanded "authorship" (via Social Media tools) to actually practice (change) "agency." Related, not long after we chatted a colleague of mine shared the following thought, "Look at what role TV coverage played in the Civil Rights Movement!" And today, what role can Social Media tools play in our efforts to advance issues of Social Justice with our students? Food for thought... Peace, Robert Beaver Country Day School Bill,

I only wish I had been able to do this at school! I particularly like the way you have combined history with future-thinking media skills/awareness. I picked up a few good ideas myself! If you ever need a favour in Limerick let me know and I'll do my best to help you out. There are certainly many things in Limerick that need to be discovered by the outside world!
