You make a great case for DYNAMIC standards, as well, though here in Maine, we're finally only publishing our SECOND set of learning standards ever--and the last set was ten years ago, so I'm not sure we could brag that ours are dynamic and regularly updated! And, as Laura explained, blogging is only ONE of the technology communication tools mentioned in that technology standard in MI. I do think you and I and Laura are on the same page, Deborah, and better yet, you made me clarify my thinking for MYSELF in clarifying it for you and I am now in love with my new literacy-technology analogy :> LOL!
