Participants will be shown how to use social media like Skype, YouTube, blogs and Twitter to get in contact with
students and teachers from other parts of the world. Students communicate and learn from peers in the outside
world using social media and teachers introduce new material to the students on personal blogs using authentic material like videos from YouTube and TED. Curriculum
goals are the basis for learning, not textbooks, and students find how different topics can be used to cover the
curriculum goals. Questions and challenges are set by the students with help from teachers. Students offer feedback to fellow students. The goal is self-paced differentiated
learning where every student can progress individually and the teacher can keep track of this. We explore how it is
possible to use digital age learning in an authentic real-world practice, modeling real-world problems.

I defiantly agree that--while the organization of the story was a little cluttered--is was quite a remarkable account of the experiences of the grandfather in WWII. What a story! It seems great that people are recording oral recounts of experiences in WWII such as these and that agencies like the BBC publish it. One aspect that I thought was particularly pertinent was how the story referenced the celebration of Christmas; this nearly overlaps with the point of year in which we read it. This certainly provides a powerful insight into how terrible the living conditions were for the grandfather in that getting to eat cat food made it "the best Christmas ever" comparatively. Lastly, one thing I thought was interesting was how when he arrived at Auschwitz, the grandfather claimed he was a silversmith to make it seems as though he had skills to provide for the German. Coming full-circle, by the time that the Americans had arrived the grandfather had developed the very useful skill of knowing five languages, so cool!
