      You can almost see the 16 mm projector, the yellowed notes and the cracked overhead sheets.

  • the two learning systems and cultures, that of school and of the Web, are fundamentally different; one has a basis in control and structure, and the other is seemingly unstructured and chaotic. Educators, particularly those of the young, would ignore such observations at their peril. As Lee states, “most teachers, parents, education bureaucrats and politicians will not sit easily with an education they don’t control – and in many senses do not understand”

    Hi John and group. I was pleased to stumble across this Diigo group. I've been using Diigo for a while and I think it is great. Love the annotation tools.

    I am also pleased to stumble across a group with members from Manitoba. I've been teaching a online course for Brandon University in their Education graduate studies program. The course is called BU:07561 "ICT for Teachers" and it was inspired by the excellent Literacy with ICT initiative in Manitoba.

    ICT for Teachers is designed to be a guided exploration of a number of Web 2.0 tools that are being applied in teaching and learning and referenced in the Literacy with ICT continuum. http://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/tech/lict/show_me/index.html

    The course is very "hands-on" and participants (mostly working teachers throughout Manitoba) learn to use blogs, wikis, RSS, tagging, VOIP, podcasting, web video, and other online collaborative tools.

    Reflection plays a large role in the course. As people learn to use the tools there is an expectation that they use the tool to generate substantive content which is shared with the group.

    The main objective of the course is to have participants think critically about web-based tools once they actually know how they work from first hand experience. Another important objective is to have people consider how they would structure action research projects to assess the impact of web-based tools in teaching and learning.

    I would be very interested to hear from others in Manitoba about issues related to ICT and web-based networks.
