Inspired by the quotes below it is the intention of AusMacEd to bring attention to the good work being done by Australian Educators using Macintosh computers and Apple iPods. The goal of this website is to demonstrate that freedom to choose ICTs and device platforms results in the highest possible educational outcomes of their students.
“The question is not, is it possible to educate all children well, but rather do we want to do it badly enough,”
- Deborah Mire“It’s not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but those most responsive to change.”
- Charles Darwin“Schools are the conservators of culture, so they are by nature institutions that don’t like change,”
- Marc Prensky“We must overcome the awful inertia of past decades,”
- Michael Fullan, in ‘Results Now - Why and how schools don’t change’.“We are the culture best prepared for the industrial revolution. The problem is we are living in the communications revolution.”
- Unknown“We want to educate our students for their future not our past.”
- Unknown“I would trade all of my technology for an afternoon with Socrates.”
- Steve Jobs, co-founder, Apple Computer, Newsweek, Oct. 29, 2001
