Technology Integration Matrix - 0 views

  •  
    The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) was developed to help guide the complex task of evaluating technology integration in the classroom. Basic technology skills and integration of technology into the curriculum go hand-in-hand to form teacher technology literacy. Encouraging the seamless use of technology in all curriculum areas and promoting technology literacy are both key NCLB:Title II-D/EETT program purposes. The Inventory for Teacher Technology Skills (ITTS) companion tool is designed to help districts evaluate teachers' current levels of proficiency with technology and is also used as a professional development planning and needs assessment resource. The TIM is envisioned as an EETT program resource which can help support the full integration of technology in Florida schools. What is in each cell? Each cell in the matrix will have a video (or several videos) which illustrate the integration of technology in classrooms where only a few computers are available and/or classrooms where every student has access to a laptop computer. Transformation The teacher creates a rich learning environment in which students regularly engage in activities that would have been impossible to achieve without technology. Active Indicator: Given ongoing access to online resources, students actively select and pursue topics beyond the limitations of even the best school library. Collaborative Indicator: Technology enables students to collaborate with peers and experts irrespective of time zone or physical distances. Constructive Indicator: Students use technology to construct, share, and publish knowledge to a worldwide audience. Authentic Indicator: By means of technology tools, students participate in outside-of-school projects and problem-solving activities that have meaning for the students and the community. Goal Directed Indicator: Students engage in ongoing metacognative activities at a level that would be unattainable without the support of technol

    Always looking for reading resources to share with the Striving Readers group. Here is a great online resource that has short readings that are applicable and topical. May not be user friendly for students 2 years or more behind grade level, but very applicable to the content area classrooms! Very interactive, combine pictures with text, updated constantly.

Blackboard Learn for K-12 | Education in the 21st Century - 0 views

  •  
    s the use of computing and networking technologies in schools grows, educators increasingly incorporate online tools and resources into their curricula-some even replace traditional classroom interactions with "virtual" courses that take place entirely online. At the same time, administrators are concerned with helping students develop 21st century skills while bridging the digital divide between students and adults. To address emerging trends in education, Project Tomorrow, a national education nonprofit group and Blackboard have joined together to bring you Education in the 21st Century, a series of reports that include data from the SpeakUp Survey, which shed light on issues related to learning and leading in K-12 education.

Ipod Physics - 2 views

  •  
    Great resource from Derrick McNeil for helping physics students learn Physics, not independently, but at an independent pace to supplement and differentiate content for his students (and ours).  Interesting approach and philosophy that I think has great merit and is worth exploring for more content areas.

LiveBinders - Organize your resources in an online binder - 0 views

  •  
    "LiveBinders is your 3-ring binder for the Web * Collect your resources * Organize them neatly and easily * Present them with pride Best of all, it's free!" Now we are talking not only an organization tool but a creativity tool. In the process or organzing my materials, I'm creating those connections and webbing of links to where and why I post material in multiple places (3 ring binder tabs). I like it. I also like that it's drag and drop. I need to play some more with this one!

    If working in the virtual environment with students, you are likely aware that embedding video and other resources into pages/posts is an important aspect of online literacy. This site gives the user an enhanced interface. Good for more advanced users or for presentations that you want more control over.

Can I have your half-attention, please? : Macleans OnCampus - 0 views

  •  
    While some professors seek to exclude the devices from the classroom, others are creating multimedia-rich curricula in which students can draw on online resources and interact with each other. Banning laptops is just plain wrong, according to Don Krug, associate professor at UBC's department of curriculum studies. He says students are adults, and the best a professor can hope for is a "respectful learning environment," where students limit their own behaviour. "If they really want to learn the information, they will. They're paying a lot of money," he says. "We're better off teaching them how to be responsible learners." Shows two polar solutions to laptop problems: total ban & adapting curricula to include multi-media interaction. Also presents respectful learning environment as best course for students who are adults. - comment by Kent Gerber

    This wiki will be open during the month of November, 2008 as an accompaniment to our just published EDUCAUSE Review article, Web 2.0 Storytelling: Emergence of a New Genre in which we propose that the new tools and forms of online creation represent a new genre of storytelling and creative expression. We have set this site up partly to add a few additional resources, but more so to engage you in an open discussion where you can push back against our ideas or share more examples.

SkyDrive: What's new - 1 views

  •  
    Microsoft is working to make SkyDrive bigger, faster, and more useful. I've had my skydrive account for a year and haven't used it. Is it too late for this considering Dropbox has such a large lead and is already embedded?  I do like that the online versions of the Microsoft Office Suite seem to be getting better, faster, and with more features. I think I'll need to work on making this a testing priority for myself over the next few months.
