    1. That kind of blind trust may be dangerous for content creators and consumers alike, both in terms of what we see and what we get.

    2. There is no “one best way” to integrate technology into curriculum. Rather, integration efforts should be creatively designed or structured for particular subject matter ideas in specific classroom contexts.

      Integrating tech into every lesson may not be something that is realistic for teachers. This might not be the best approach when it comes to every lesson.

    3. Rather, particular technologies have their own propensities, potentials, affordances, and constraints that make them more suitable for certain tasks than others

    2. Digital skills would focus on which tool to use (e.g., Twitter) and how to use it (e.g., how to tweet, retweet, use TweetDeck), while digital literacy would include in-depth questions: When would you use Twitter instead of a more private forum? Why would you use it for advocacy? Who puts themselves at risk when they do so?

      This is so important and something that wasn't talked about enough when I was in school. I would hear parents and others talk about how if you post something on the internet, it would be there for life, but I never understood exactly what that meant.

    1. Good online readers know the tools and strategies that can be used to search for and locate people, resources, and information. They then know how to judge the credibility of these sources.
