I like the Origami theme for this Prezi! When I read your reflections, I'm a bit concerned about your questions. When you think about digital content, I'm not sure why you might consider tapping into the information on the web as 'cheating' - can you provide more reasoning about this thought? To clear up RSS - these are feeds you CHOOSE to subscribe to, so if you are interested in learning more about environmental issues and request RSS feeds sent to your email, for example, you would be making the choice to read them - it is much more efficient than going out to the internet every so often to search for yourself! RSS is using the power of the web to harness the information you request. And, virtual field trips can be so valuable to replace 'impossible' real trips to the beach - think about the fact that though our students may actually be able to go to the beach, they can't easily get to Alaska to study the impact of oil drilling on the environment, etc. Though your questions are appreciated, please be sure to think about both sides of the extremes before you reflect and try to see the more moderated view as well!
