The Bathing Cap
This quote: "Trying to prepare students for their future and teach them about Internet safety without Web 2.0 in schools ~ is like trying to teach a child to swim without a swimming pool!" (found here) has been thrashing around in my head all week. It's just so....true. However, I'm left wondering: Who are the lifeguards, what do we do if kids head for the deep end before they're ready, and are the ETs in the pool or shouting from the sidelines?

Beware metaphors -- they are addictive! :-) So do we act as waterwings? What happens if there's too much chlorine in the pool? Do we have a "no diving in the shallow end" rule?
