  • 6. Personal Cards. Ask participants to make a card representing themselves using trading cards: http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/deck.php. After making a card they can post it online. You can ask them to prepare a card about a specific aspect of their lives or their own style. For instance, their own communication or learning style.
  • 8. Would you rather? Ask participants some 'Would you rather' questions and let them answer them. After this participants can make up their own would you rather questions. Come up with a list of Would you Rather Questions or use some of these:• Would you rather always win pie-eating contests or always win wheelbarrow races?• Would you rather be a deep sea diver or an astronaut?• Would you rather be able to hear any conversation or take back anything you say?• Would you rather be invisible or be able to read minds?• Would you rather be the most popular or the smartest person you know?• Would you rather be the sand castle or the wave?• Would you rather give up your computer or your pet?• Would you rather never use the internet again or never watch TV again?• Would you rather not be able to use your phone or your e-mail?

  • using GoogleDocs as a platform for communication and collaboration.
  • Some of those roles include Discussion Director, Literary Luminary, Connector, Summarizer, and/or Character Tracer
  • Students are required to justify their responses within the Google Doc and reflect how that section of reading is influential in their everyday life. In a world where telecommuting and virtual meetings are the norm, having kids working together to think critically other than face to face is an important future workforce skill.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Developing – This is a new and innovative way of giving a 20th century lesson a much needed 21st century face lift. Students are able to chat, assign roles, and communicate in real time with each other within as well as beyond the classroom walls.

  • “The most powerful uses are where people are producing,” Cator said. “They’re answering questions that they are intimately involved with.”
  • Students can perform, compose and record themselves easily with technology, turning their work into digital products that can live on the internet long after students have moved out of the class. And students are now able to connect globally in ways they’ve rarely been able to do before.
  • The internet has made access to data and information about the world is unprecedented, letting teachers challenge students to deeply engage with the world around them.

  • I believe that one of the roadblocks to innovative use of digital media to support teaching and learning in the classroom is the perceived divide between young people and adults in digital ability. Teachers can be reluctant to experiment with new media because of their unfamiliarity with it and their fear of giving up control in the classroom, and when they do introduce technology, they are at risk of imbuing it with magical powers and failing to give students direction about what to do with it, assuming that students already know. While we do need to tap into the knowledge and expertise that students bring to navigating the digital world, this does not mean that we abdicate responsibility for setting up educational opportunities that will allow young people to interact with the digital world in sophisticated and critical ways.

  • Blended learning is a great approach to take for concepts that can’t be completely communicated in one sitting or seminar.  If this is the case, it is a good idea to break up the topic into different delivery structures.  For instance, you can create an “Intro” course to the topic as an e-Learning module.
  • save the higher level content for live training, therefore leaving you more time for questions.  It also allows participants to get exposure to the content before the actual event – thus decreasing the initial learning curve.  At the end of the online module, allow participants to submit their initial questions or concerns.  Again, this will enable you to customize the live training so that it addresses the major concerns of the group.
  • The introductory e-Learning shapes your live training event.  You can get a sense of what areas you should focus on and where you might experience some push back.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  •  As a general rule of thumb, these virtual events should not be over two hours long as that is a long time to sit on a call, and you’ll lose the attention of the audience.
  • record this webinar and to make it available for people who could not attend.  This makes a useful tool for future reference.
  • blended learning approach
  • maximize learning and reinforce the message to participants.

  • interactive annotation component helped improve comprehension and reading strategy use in a group of fifth graders. It turns out that they could read deeply. They just had to be taught how.
  • We cannot go backwards. As children move more toward an immersion in digital media, we have to figure out ways to read deeply there
