Dave Warlick has caught aggregator fever. In this post (and yes, it's a continuation of the 'blogs as conversation' conversation) he offers several ways aggregators could be used in a school environment: lesson plans, lesson reflections, lesson blogs, dynamic categorization, announcements and policy, subscription analysis. "The aggregator is the linchpin of this arrangement. Teachers must be able to refine their settings and how their subscriptions are organized." Yes. That's what we're saying. But it's a bit more difficult that just waving your hands and saying 'make it so'. You can't simply 'require' that teachers use this stuff; it's a whole different environment, a whole different mindset.
