Lots of folks are wondering why people are protesting the G8. It isn’t just because we want them to end poverty in Africa. That would be a good start tho’. Check out the wealth of knowledge via links here at this Indymedia UK page. I’m going to read up and sharpen my wit! 😀

Literacy in the 21st Century
After seeing the flash movie called EPIC , David Warlick says,
“In order to imprint the point that literacy, in the 21st century, is far richer than merely being able to decode the text in front of you. It means being able to:
* located appropriate information,
* extract meaning,
* critically evaluate the information in terms of your goals and environment, and
* being able to logically organize the information into valuable personal digital libraries. ”
Those four points are my new mantra. See this post for more info about EPIC.
