I love digital learning and have built my classroom and career on Instructional Technology and would plug my brain directly into the
Internet if I could. I think that we have a tools to change the world with modern Information Technology and we have to teach our students to use those tools in a world in flux.
But whenever I hear talk about Digital Learning Day (DLD), I think of some of the arguments I have heard to end Black History Month. These arguments usually posit that the role of African Americans in our country is too great to relegate to one month. Black History is an integral part of learning American History. The story of African Americans is one of the important facets of the story of Americans as a whole. But relegating it to a particular month, we are segregating and labeling it as a subset of the bigger picture.
