I've posted this weeks podcast about my thoughts about how this decade will be characterized. We have the 70's, 80's, 90's, and now we have the 00's (pronounced Oh's).
I think that there are three types of people that characterize the OO's in education that I outline in the podcast.
Also, I talk about the Friedman book and its impact on teachers as well as the new flat classroom project that I've been discussing here on the blog.
Length: 5 minutes 54 seconds

I prefer the “noughties” as the name for 2000-2009.
The 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, etc., are not decades, they are decennaries.
A ten-year period is a decennary. Only the first of every ten decennaries is also a decade.
Here, 1971-1980, 1981-1990, 1991-2000, and 2001-2010 are decades as well as decennaries. All other 10-year periods are decennaries.
Charles – sounds like you’re a semantic expert. I’m not, I just used the common terminology used by most of us.
