		<description><![CDATA[Three news stories caught my attention in the past couple of weeks. Each, in its own way demonstrates how technology has allowed and, in some cases, encouraged students to raise their &#8220;voices&#8221; above the crowd.

		<description><![CDATA[A new exhibit opens tomorrow morning at the Canada Science and Technology Museum in Ottawa, but it&#8217;s probably nothing like the museum trips that you were forced to take on your school trip to the National Capital. It&#8217;s called Sex: A Tell-All Exhibition and if the name doesn&#8217;t grab your attention, some of the content [...]]]></description>

So here&#8217;s another metaphorical challenge, this one with a more athletic theme: What sport most closely connects with your vision of the teaching—learning relationship?  This time, I&#8217;m going to jump in with [...]]]></description>
