Digital Pioneer: The Movie
A digital version of a blog post I made earlier this year and my (non-successful) ADE application video.

Kathy,
Liked the video. "Digital Pioneer" it is.
Kathy,
Nice job on the video.
I can't tell you how tired I've become of hearing this immigrant/native garbage. While I certainly spend part of my day helping my contemporaries (the old folks) attach files in email, I also spend another part of my day teaching my IT college students how to Twitter, share through Google Docs, and annotate and bookmark in Diigo. They pick it up quickly, but they don't have a clue what tools are out there to help them as their knowledge almost always ends at Facebook.
I also have to say that I've learned so much about technology and teaching from you and your website(s) over the past few years that calling you a "digital immigrant" is just wrong.
So if you want to be called a "Digital Pioneer," then that sounds great to me although "Guru" or "The person who spends a whole lot of time exploring and sharing this stuff" might work as well.
I find it impossible to believe that you are not an Apple Distinguished Educator. I figured you were one of the first since!
Love it! So glad someone is out there sticking up for us pioneers!
Love it! Thanks for standing up for us pioneers!!!
Dear Mrs. Schrock...
You are way cool...
I loved the video...
You inspire and contribute to our efforts...
Warm regards,
Mrs. Borsari
Kathy,
I really enjoyed your video. The idea of "Digital Pioneers" is new to me but it makes so much sense. It makes sense that those people who have grown up with technology should be referred to as Digital Pioneers instead of Immigrants or Natives. Thank you for sharing!
Kathy,
Great! I appreciate your going to bat for those of us who have been using technology in all of it's forms for a very long time. I will be sure to use "Digital Pioneer" as I communicate the need for change in our district. We have many teachers who fall into this category.
You always come up with excellent ways to help people understand where we are.
