Digital_Nation: Life on the Virtual Frontier

If you missed the Frontline documentary Digital_Nation: Life on the Virtual Frontier, PBS is very generous with their online content and makes the entire program available to stream at the website.

Web exclusives include a section called Learning: How To Educate Children For The Digital Age that features a clip of English teacher Jenny Johns using an exciting new social networking tool to teach To Kill a Mockingbird -- Ning.

I really enjoyed this documentary (as I do most things on PBS!) and I'm going to use it as a spark to hopefully get more teachers excited about Web 2.0 tools in our school.
