Executive Summary | National Education Technology Plan - 1 views

  • The NETP presents a model of 21st century learning powered by technology, with goals and recommendations in five essential areas: learning, assessment, teaching, infrastructure, and productivity. The plan also identifies far-reaching “grand challenge problems” that should be funded and coordinated at a national level.
  • Just as leveraging technology can help us improve learning and assessment, the model of 21st century learning calls for using technology to help build the capacity of educators by enabling a shift to a model of connected teaching. In such a teaching model, teams of connected educators replace solo practitioners and classrooms are fully connected to provide educators with 24/7 access to data and analytic tools as well as to resources that help them act on the insights the data provide.
  • In connected teaching, teaching is a team activity. Individual educators build online learning communities consisting of their students and their students’ peers; fellow educators in their schools, libraries, and afterschool programs; professional experts in various disciplines around the world; members of community organizations that serve students in the hours they are not in school; and parents who desire greater participation in their children’s education.

  • Episodic and ineffective professional development is replaced by professional learning that is collaborative, coherent, and continuous and that blends more effective in-person courses and workshops with the expanded opportunities, immediacy, and convenience enabled by online environments full of resources and opportunities for collaboration.

    I just listened to the a digital storytelling webinar (archived) from this ISTE series. It was very good and I found great resources that I can share with teachers. There is another live webinar at the end of the month, but since they are archived, you can always check it out at a convenient time.

    I found this resource and thought I should share it because it is a free resource for NYS educators. You can test drive the site before joining. It is a collection of video tutorials and lessons by teachers that cover Pre-k - high school curricula that also allows you to organize and share resources.
