Jim Butt, promptly upon joining the Cheltenham Township (Montgomery County) school board, started a very classy blog. Now Jim has launched another new site called School Board 2.0.
The subtitle to School Board 2.0 is “Leading Education into the 21st Century.” It’s good to see this kind of leadership from a tech-savvy board member. This site offers an open forum and a place for forming special interest groups. One of the early posts is a funny, disturbing video: “Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity.” Bear in mind that the site is still new — not many entries yet. School Board 2.0 is a work in progress and, with any luck, will continue to be one for many years to come.
