shared by Rhys Daunic on 03 Dec 12 - No Cached
  • The international strategy is inextricably linked with the Department's domestic priorities to advance two goals simultaneously: to strengthen U.S. education and to advance our nation's international priorities. By working to increase the global competencies of all U.S. students, learning from other countries to improve our education policies and practices, and engaging in active education diplomacy, we will help to advance these two strategic goals. The strategy is firmly based on the belief that a world-class education for all—both domestically and internationally—is a win-win.

    Good for us all to think about.  And good to know about an article like this.  I'm seeing a little backlash against "technology"  like this in various articles.  I'll try to gather them up.

    Thanks for sharing this, Rhys. I agree -- this is an important article for all of us to read.

    Wow, what an interesting perspective. I'm inclined to believe some of those high-performing schools are excelling *despite* the lack of technology, but I definitely sensed the author's bias here...it almost seemed like she wanted to prove that 'fancy equipment' detracts from real learning.

    Are Educators Ready for Cloud Computing in Schools? By Patrick Ledesma on May 16, 2011 3:34 PM | No Comments | No Recommendations In 2001, Mark Prensky coined the terms "Digital Natives" and "Digital Immigrants" to describe the differences between adults and students in using technology. Educators are the "Digital Immigrants" who have to adapt and learn how to integrate technology into their lives. Students are "Digital Natives" born into a culture and lifestyle where technology immersion is the norm.

    The U.S. Department of Education is developing a new National Educational Technology Plan to provide a vision for how information and communication technologies can help transform American education.

    CITEd seems like a smart, helpful organization. I like this piece and also their site in general. I wonder how many other organizations/sites are out there like this and what is the best way to choose a small number to follow/use for our technology work.

  • Always run through a technology lesson before presenting it to the class -- and always have a back-up lesson prepared in case the technology fails.
  • Type directions for frequently used computer operations -- opening programs, inserting clip art, printing documents, and so on -- on index cards, laminate them, and connect them with a circle ring. Keep a set next to each computer.
  • When working on lengthy technology projects, print out step-by-step instructions. Include some that say "Save your work; do not go any further until you help your neighbors reach this point."
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • Appoint classroom technology managers
  • If you're a language arts or foreign language teacher using Microsoft Word, teach your students how to use the Text to Table feature.
  • Turn your classroom into a museum. After a lesson using presentation software, allow students to walk around the room and view everyone else's work
  • Post a list of all your rules for technology use in a visible place
  • Attach plastic hooks to monitors to hang headphones on when they're not being used.
  • Type PLEASE WAIT FOR INSTRUCTIONS on 8½ by 11 papers, laminate them, and tape one sheet to the top of every monitor
  • Have students turn off their monitors when you're giving directions.
  • When working in a computer lab, assign each student a computer.
  • Have each student keep a Tech Folder for storing ongoing technology projects
  • When students are working on small group technology projects on classroom computers, divide the tasks so some students are working on the computers while others are working at their desks on another part of the project
  • Provide a sign-up sheet for the computers. When one group is finished using the computers, they must notify the next group that it's their turn.
  • Set up teams of computer helpers,
  • Never assume you know it all! Offer a free pencil to any student who teaches you something you didn't know.
