"However, I don't think that this method would be best for high school and middle school students."
Well, you should visit Gulf Shores Elementary. You would be blown away by what is happening there - at all grade levels. Anthony Capp's 3rd grade class is a replica (at 3rd grade level) of the networked student and the reports by the 7th grader. And the kids absolutely LOVE it! A new training project called the Digital Renaissance Leadership Academy started Monday (2/25/13) in Baldwin County.
All teachers will be trained to be Baldwin County's equivalent of a networked teacher. There are almost 300 in the first year long program of DRLA. In all grades. It will be exciting to watch it happen. So get ready. You will have to be a networked teacher if you want to teach in Baldwin County.
