Truly Twenty-First C. Literacy (Beyond Buzzwords) | Beyond School - 0 views
-
Students need to be able to evaluate information on screens upon which any sage, charlatan, or idiot can publish. That’s new (sort of. Books really are open to the same range of authors).
-
They need to learn “online identity management,” and I would argue that’s a new literacy. New because they’re publishing themselves, and that means reading/writing/speaking/filming/photo-ing (literacy), and 21st century because privacy has never been so porous as now. They need to know how to keep Big Brother, Big Employer, and Big Google from knowing too much.
-
They need to learn “social reading” online. By that attempt at a cute label I mean the ability to evaluate communication acts by strangers in social networks, emails, comment threads wherever, and the whole range of places people can attempt to connect to us individually now. They need to be able to “read” a phish, for example, and a fraudster, and yes, a p&rv.

Most Teachers Don't Live There… | Teacher Reboot Camp - 3 views

Technology is not the enemy and ignorance is not bliss. If we don’t show students how to use social media and technology, then we cannot complain when they use this in unhealthy ways.

I love my personal learning network. I love reading and commenting on their blogs, interacting with them through Twitter, Skyping with their principals, collaborating through nings, attending conferences with them on Second Life and on e-learning platforms! If I never participated in social media, then I would not be the educator I am today! Now, it is time for me to begin to spread the word.
-
Make a goal to introduce the value of a personal learning network to at least one educator. I find most educators actually enjoy the value they receive when introduced to blogs.

Langwitches » Take the Technology out of the Equation - 0 views

Maybe we need to find common ground among the teachers and administrators at our schools. Take the word “technology” out of the discussion. That word seems to mean too many different things to too many different people (even scare). Maybe we need to be talking about something no one can deny as a priority in our schools: STUDENT LEARNING. Maybe we if we talk on that common ground, there will be less resistance, more collaboration and communication on how to achieve that.

Traditional teaching and learning strategies are becoming increasingly ineffective with a generation of secondary students that have instant access to information, are accustomed to managing their own acquisition of knowledge, and embrace the roles of content producer and publisher.
-
Today’s high school curriculum presents students with assignments that lack a real-world context and activities that lead to uninspired projects and end in a letter grade.
-
Students embrace media that presents participants with a challenge and requires them to draw on prior learning, acquire new knowledge, and tap their creativity to fashion solutions.

Citizenship is how to participate - safely, yes, but also meaningfully and thoughtfully - in civil society, in political, social and other spheres. There's a lot more to it than responsibilities.

“What we’re talking about is a completely different shift in that paradigm where you as a learner have some choice," Haskell said. “You can choose your own way through the curriculum.
