I have hosted more than 2 dozen for EDEN over the last few years at conferences in Spain, Norway, Hungary and Sweden. But this time, EDEN (the European Distance and E-Learning Network) turned the tables on me and I was the one in the hot seat. It was fun, but I think I know which side of the microphone I prefer.

I was largely incredulous that a school would even ask such a thing in the year 2012, and also sad that they were choosing to address problems by trying to bury them rather than attempting to work with parents and students to help them appropriately navigate our social media saturated world.

"Technology won't replace teachers, but teachers who use technology will probably replace teachers who don't" This was just one of the contentious and thought provoking statements made at Learning Through Technology this week in Glasgow. LTT2013 was one of two conferences I was invited to speak at this week.

It is time to realize that social media, technology, and the change process are not the enemy. We have learned to give up control, view failure as not always a bad thing as long as we learn from our mistakes, to be flexible, provide adequate support, and take calculated risks if we are to truly innovate.
