Pretty good rant in favour of progressive schools, realistic approaches to data ("good data is what kids do every day, not how they do on a test") and good models for learning ("Media lab - lifelong kindergarten"). "If you want to see what kids have learned, give them a project." Also, "They should not give us schools plus computers, they should give us whole new schools."
