  • Zinch, which is free for students, is designed like a social networking tool.
  • lines are blurring between social networking tools and digital portfolios.
  • Digital portfolios provide students a way to track what they’ve learned over time, compile their grades and scores and publish their completed projects. And they provide a sense of a student’s identity, one behind the transcript, when submitting their applications.

  • Parents can involve their kids, even at a very young age, to help them not only pick their favorite works but also to assess and reflect on their learning. The reflection component, much more than the presentation element of digital portfolios, is where Barrett believes they reach their full power.

  • I’m recycling a couple of videos that I have posted in the past, mostly because I believe that they’re worth watching again.  These videos – the original higher ed version of “A Vision of Students Today” by Mike Wesch, the spin-off , called “A Vision of K-12 Students Today”, and “The Networked Student”, created by Wendy Drexler‘s high school students  – bring to mind many thoughts that I find both challenging and encouraging.  Hopefully you will, too.

      the case for interactive textbooks
  • Done properly, interactive textbooks offer not only video tutorials, more personalised instruction, just-in-time hints and homework help, but also instant access to assessment tools, teaching resources and the ability to network socially with students elsewhere.
  • Using tools for highlighting and annotating virtual flash-cards, students can select information within the text and store it for later revision. Searching public databases, direct from within the textbook, is also possible. At school, students can sync with their teachers’ computers, to hand in their quiz results and homework for marking.

  • if software is to be used as a teaching aid (called “blended learning” in pedagogical circles), then it should seek to balance the need for correct answers with the freedom to take risks and break rules. “If you’re not prepared to be wrong,” Dr Robinson preaches, “you’ll never come up with anything original.”

      the importance of librarians in supporting us in developing information literacy within our classrooms
  • The starting point is the assertion that digital literacy is more extensive then effective use of technologies.
  • Librarians have potentially numerous roles to play in this environment, but one of their key roles is in supporting and advising staff and students how to navigate, select and use digital tools, content and services to achieve a particular goal.

  • One challenge we face is ensuring that our own staff have the capabilities to offer expertise in the digital environment and that the expertise is not limited to one or two 'experts'.

  • The Big6TM is an information literacy curriculum, an information problem-solving process, and a set of skills which provide a strategy for effectively and efficiently meeting information needs
  • It can be used whenever students are in a situation, academic or personal, which requires information to solve a problem, make a decision or complete a task. Using a multi-level approach, students can develop competency in information problem-solving and decision-making that will carry forward into lifelong, useable skills.

    OMG! We are teaching children so many skills, Its amazing how schools and teachers are constantly finding techniques, tools, ways to educate, that we should improve so much as humanbeings, forgeting about war and money and working on improving ourselves and how we live and we take care of the world and we care for each other!
