Your slideshow Preparing The 21st Century Student has been added as a favorite by afyonlu.

Interesting....but what does this mean? The username afyonlu has a profile that only gives the information that the person is a male living in Austria. Afyonlu has not uploaded any slide shows himself, but shows twelve favorites (one being my slide show) -- shows with titles such as The 25 Basic Styles of Blogging, Motivation Models, Media '08, and Branding Trends. This user seemingly has a connection to the business world, so perhaps my presentation caught his attention since it discusses some of the skills our students will need in order to succeed in the 21st century work force.

But....what does this mean....

  • Is this an example of how anyone can have an impact with their ideas in a global society?
  • What doors might God be opening or closing?
  • Should I care that a presentation of mine is on a list of favorites of someone else?
  • Should I be excited about this?
  • Nervous?

Thoughts?

Great Questions!

Is this an example of how anyone can have an impact with their ideas in a global society?
That is the awesome thing about our information culture, is that literally ANYONE can share their ideas and thoughts

Should I care that a presentation of mine is on a list of favorites of someone else?
Hope not, or else you wouldn't have posted it on SlideShare :)

Should I be excited about this?
Are you? Remember seeing the first dots coming up on your ClusterMap and thinking, "who from India is reading my blog?"

Nervous? Only with anticipation at what connections could be developed.

The ten thousand dollar question is: What can we do to harness that feeling of connectivity and pass it on to students. It makes all the prep work you put into the presentation worth it, huh?

Congratulations!
