    Hi Laura, This is a great matrix for sure, and it it s one that we will explore in our next F2F. It helps, as you suggest, to self-assess our use of technology, AND it can help us in selection of what tech. I like it to help me balance the WHY of introducing technology to teachers, and getting them to use it to help them introduce it to their classes. If you like this matrix, then you'll LOVE this one: http://fcit.usf.edu/matrix/matrix.php It's actually broken down into subjects and it's all hyperlinked! Thanks, garth.

    Thank you both for sharing these matrices. I am going to steal at least one for part of my presentation to my faculty tomorrow morning! Helps you to evaluate if you really are using your device as a "$1000 pencil" as Alan November likes to say.

Personalize Learning: Put the "Person" in "Personalization" - 2 views

shared by Derek Doucet on 11 Oct 15 - No Cached
  • It's time to put the "person" in "personalization" and stop the conversations going in directions that take us off course.
  • It's not about technology. It's not about the test or improving test scores. It's really not about school. It's all about the learner, how they learn best and that what they learn is meaningful and for a purpose.
  • Teachers and learners can work together to develop learning goals and design activities that are authentic and relevant for the learner so they are engaged in learning. Learning has to have a context that learners can grasp and understand.
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • eachers also think they have to teach like a champion because they are the ones responsible for the learning. Don't you think that this is backwards?
  • When we put the focus on each learner and how they can own and drive their learning, then we see engaged, self-directed learners with agency.
  • This is just the beginning of a new world of learning and it's time to put the "Person" back in "Personalization."
  • They probably don't realize that their digital footprint is actually a "digital tattoo" that can never be removed.
  • If we teach as we taught yesterday,we rob our children of tomorrow.”
  • There are companies that frame "personalized learning" as adaptive learning systems using algorithms to choose the right path for learning. So we're going to end this blog emphasizing learners need to be the ones who choose their path with their teacher guiding the process. It is about encouraging learners to have a voice and choice in their learning. It's happening now all over the world.
  • When we focus on learning and not on curriculum, teachers roles change. We still can teach to standards but let's involve learners in the process and give them a voice so they own the learning.

  • “If we had known how big a transition it would have been [to switch] from laptops to iPads we would have proactively done some good work with teachers to make the transition easier for them,” Mike Muir, the policy director of the Maine Learning Through Technology Initiative, told Quartz.
  • One teacher in Virginia thought giving her third graders an iPad would enhance their learning, but found that, for all the device’s benefits in terms of adding more varied activities to lessons, it undermined her pupils’ conversation and communication skills.
