I’m being interviewed tomorrow on the Web Talk Show webcast. The topic for the webcast this week is Kids and the Internet, and I’ve been asked to contribute my knowledge for 10 minutes specifically on the topic of the role of the Internet in education. Upon reflection, I realize that my knowledge would only fill up 1 minute of discussion, but only if I talked very slowly. ;^D

So, I’d like your ideas and help. What are the most positive ways that education is changed by the use of the Internet? What are the negatives, and how do we deal with these? This seems like such a huge topic that trying to find some specifics I can draw upon in 10 minutes is boggling my poor brain.

If you are interested in listening, the webcast is Thursday, February 23 from  20:00 to 21:00 UTC. I believe that the show is archived for later listening (but not podcast!?! Hmmmm ….)
