Bob is a teacher at Dillard High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He teaches what the department of education insists is "Multimedia" but he secretly calls Information Architecture. His students like the idea of subversive learning, albeit constructionist, constructivist and, even meaningful. Shameless plug here: Go Moodle!

Broward County has the largest fully accredited school district in the U.S. although it is around the fifth or sixth largest student-wise with nearly 300,000 (264,000 in 2006-2007) students. Are there one million students in Massachusetts and will that prevent them from getting into the program? *wink*

Dillard High School has a few less than 2500 students on average. If you want to find out about the demographics, go to the website and look around. You can think of it as a little third world country nestled among the palm trees of balmy South Florida.

Bob always goes to the AAAS annual meeting to stay sane although he doesn't understand much, the drone is comforting. At the last meeting, he met some nice people from Maine. There were five of them from one school district. Bob was the only high school teacher from the Broward County District and only his boss knew where he was going. (Shhhh . . . don't tell.) What is it about Maine? Is it because Maine doesn't have Disney World, or is it the lobster (with claws)?

What will happen when there are more laptops than children?

On a serious note, Bob thinks that access to learning is a matter of adoption. Heck, maybe learning itself is adoptive and we just need to market it better.
