You heard it first at T2E

More confirmation that Internet Explorer is bad news. This article reports that Penn State has discouraged everyone on campus from using IE. They suggest using ... Mozilla, Firefox, Safari, or something else to protect against viruses and poor internet security.

What should we learn from this as teachers? Using what everyone else uses is not always smart. Just because IE is popular doesn't mean we should be using it. I know teachers have a lot they need to be concerned with, but staying up to date on the technology and what works best should be one of these.
