Primatech Paper Company relation to Education

Primatech Paper Company

What is the big deal about a paper company? Bigger question what does a paper company have to do with education? As most of you know I am working on my master for educational administration.  While going through my first few classes I have found a new philosophy on education.  Education is on the wrong path and has been for a long time.  We are doing harm to our children, my education has let me down.  We have known about the major different learning styles for a long time, being Cognitive or Psychomotor, or the newer differentiated learning.  But, is that enough?  NO!  There are many more talented writers and bloggers out there that can talk about how we are training our children for jobs not even created and what is the newest technique for implementing the latest internet tool.  I read over 30 blogs a day with great information and encourage you to find some good Blogs on topics you enjoy to learn.  I sit in webinars and listen to educational presentations in real world and Virtual (Second Life).  As this Post evolves, I will be changing it.  I just wanted to get a solid foundation down while 1. I had time 2. I didn't forget it. and 3. I haven't seen this thought yet anywhere besides my own thoughts on twitter.

SO WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT?  WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH PAPER COMPANY?

If you go on the primatech website and you click on about us and then you click on the logo in the upper left hand corner you get a secret website.  Now they don't try to hide the secret website but the possibilities are there for education.  So how does this relate still?  Are you still confused? How is Education suppose to change to have hidden websites?

Well, Primatech isn't a real company, it is a company on the show Heroes, and this is how it fits into education.  Heroes has taken an all in your face attitude to promote its show.  You have the show on tv, you have the normal show website (plus fan website), you have interaction by creating your own Hero for their graphic novels on line, and now you have a website based on their company that is a front for their secret job.  This is what we need to do in education, we need to be using everything and anything to educate our children.  How will you educate your child?

Again this is a rough start for something I want to take time to work on and write about.. .comments will be beneficial!
