What would K-12 schools be like if every single student had his or her own laptop computer? If a PDA and Internet connection were considered the birthright of every child?
COE Associate Professor Kara Dawson may soon find out. She is part of a team that is studying the effects of “ubiquitious computing” in 11 Florida school districts.
Dianna Miller, a doctoral student in the School of Teaching and Learning, wrote a grant proposal that secured nearly $1 million for the Clay County school district, where Miller used to teach. The U.S. Department of Education awarded the grant to the Andrew Jackson Liberty Fellowship, a professional development program for 50 K-12 history teachers.

A popular book on the different ways men and women communicate was called, “Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus.” Anyone at UF who did not see our Florida Gators chew up the Ohio State Buckeyes Jan. 8 to win the NCAA national title must be from Pluto (where the Buckeyes would no doubt like to hide after their complete meltdown). Seriously, the game was terrific, and while we know this great university is primarily about outstanding academic accomplishments, we all enjoy the glow of victory a national championship brings, and being in the media spotlight.

You may think you know us already. Some of you have studied us in school and some of you are old enough to remember life at the turn of the 21st Century. If you’re an undergrad at UF in 2056, you probably learned in school that George W. Bush was president in 2006, that the nation was at war on two fronts, and that terrorism, global warming and the pric…

Most teachers are familiar with the children’s book “Stone Soup,” in which a hungry but wily traveler boils a rock in a pot of water – and convinces villagers to contribute enough additional ingredients to make a real meal.
