Quoted from the blog Leading from the Heart, by Tracey Rosen, a teacher in Quebec:
"...the concept of organizing thought, either individually or collectively – stands way above the decision process over which tool to do it with."
and later:
"As long as we keep our emphasis on the learning outcomes, the tools we use to get there can be varied. They do not need to be digital."
She's commenting on the fact that we get so preoccupied with using digital tools that we forget the reason we're using them, which is to organize our thoughts. The learning is still found within the organizing and connecting of ideas, not in mastering the latest fancy tools.
