About

This blog is an exploration of learning in the 21st century.

I’m blogging to reflect on the media that I consume - books, news, television, movies, blogs, etc. I hope that this space will allow me to challenge my beliefs and be a better teacher and administrator because of it. In the end, I hope pull my love of schools and the time in which we live into some context. We’ll see:->

About Me
My Name is Alex Ragone and I’m the Director of Technology at an Independent School in New York City and I do a weekly webcast called 21st Century Learning at EdTechTalk.com. I have a Masters Degree from Teachers College in Instructional Design and Media and a Psychology Degree from George Washington University. I’ve been a Director of Technology for ten years at two different Independent Schools. I started working at an educational non-profit in Washington, DC and then spent time working for a defense contractor. I have a beautiful wife and three young children.

The views expressed in this blog are mine and mine alone.
