Thinking about new tools of the future

After taking a quick test to determine what type of learner I am I discovered I am an aural learner.  I learn by listening and also reading and writing.  That makes perfect sense to me.  I remember being a young student

and having the three R's drilled into my mind.  Reading, Write, Repeat. It doens't suprise me this is the type of learner I am. 

...create a Picassohead of your very own..

Allow students to create art work using the link above.  Encourage them to use the Snipit tool to paste it into a blog or document. Learning to use the Picassohead was a fun experience.  It helped me to remember students will learn by different techniques.  Being allowed to explore, make mistakes and corrections was actually a fun way to monitor my progess.  Isn't that what we are supposed to do as educators?  Encourage students to explore their ability to learn?
