Score the first point to Blogdigger which dug up this little gem in my journalism + weblogs search feed yesterday: “Fourth graders get it”
It took about two minutes yesterday to explain Weblogs to my daughter’s fourth grade class before the light of understanding shined in their eyes and their hands shot up. It took another five minutes before they grasped what is happening to the media with so many bloggers out there. And it took another five minutes to explain RSS. That is where I thought I’d lose them. But they understood when it had context…
The post is from Alex Williams’ Weblog, the person who produced RSS-Winterfest. There’s lots of great RSS stuff there too.
