In response to Caitlin and the project in general - teachers always make this, I think (and I know Bill Kist would be with me on this one), erroneous assumption that kids are "digital natives" they can jump on a computer and just rock iMovie, Garage Band or even a Google search. The teacher's job is to really scaffold the technology instruction. Ms. Lee does a nice job here of asking specific questions that focus kids carefully on the content but alas I would LOVE to see how she organizes the…
