Tech Is Not a Treat: Responding to Device Misuse - Teaching Toward Tomorrow - Education... - 0 views

  • Instead of the "misuse it you lose it" mindset, I implore teachers to treat their tech as they would any other essential learning tool. Yes, this is a much more powerful tool than a pencil or book, and so with great power comes great responsibility. But should a student falter, don't take it away. Allow them to continue using it, but apply the same standards and consequences you'd give should they misuse any other essential learning tool - their pencil, book, desk or chair. And proactively support students in understanding how to make good choices through scaffolding, goal setting and clear expectations.  We've taken on this new frame of mind in many of our classrooms and we're seeing great results. The students have greater respect for their digital learning tools and, most importantly, a greater access to opportunity.

  • Academic bias. There was, and remains, an extremely strong bias that if something wasn't learned "here" or "in a classroom," it isn't legitimate learning.

  • An information-poor environment. There was no technology to support and enrich personal learning. Personalized learning paths were the private experience of the individual adult learner.
  • But the processes that are available to support the learning, intrinsically and extrinsically, have been transformed by technology into a powerful, progressive, and disruptive force in higher education and workforce preparation.
  • Equally important, as part of this technological and web-driven disruption, learners' capacity to develop and store evidence of learning in electronic portfolios, carefully organized around career, academic, or personal interests, has also been transformed.
  • personalized lifelong learning plan that can be assessed for credit toward a degree or for advancement toward a new job or recareering.
  • First, the personal learning, though specific to each learner, may have many common elements across multiple learners' experiences.
  • But there can be a personalized learning plan for each person—a plan that connects the learner and his/her history to a chosen future.
  • The components of the plan are not unique to each learner; what is unique is how the plan fits to the learner's needs and aspirations.
  • if learning plans connect learners' past and present to a future they desire, and if learners help "architect" their plans, then the learning will be deeply personal.
  • Learning Recognition Course. The Learning Recognition Course is a free course that walks the learner through the steps to build a prior learning portfolio, including requests for credit based on prior experiential learning.
