Discussion Questions
1. How does Davis's use of digital media helps kids "learn how to learn?"
2. What does Davis mean when she talks about empowerment? How can you empower students in school and at home?
3. Do you think it's important for kids to collaborate with the other students across the world? Why, or why not?
4. Davis didn't let her rural location keep her from getting students connected to the world. What sort of challenges would your school community need to make international collaboration an integral part of your curriculum?
