Tech Transformation: The SAMR Model - 2 views

  • Learning is a partnership - the teacher doesn't have all the knowledge - students are also empowered to find resources. As teachers started looking at how the technology could transform learning they knew they needed to come up with assignments that showed engagement, deeper analysis, more real life application, that students need to communicate, and that learning is interdisciplinary.
  • we have to try to move to the stages that represent transformation. In transformation students need to be participating in their learnings as we know that learning is socially constructed. Visualisation is important to make the abstract concrete. Students will become engaged and motivated through bringing the world into the classroom

  • Many teachers use a blog to facilitate the typical activities of the classroom: post homework, celebrate student achievements, communicate with parents, stimulate interest in subject matter, link to useful Web sites, promote writing for an authentic audience, etc. All these things are wonderful and easily accomplished by any teacher with average technical skills. The ClassPortal is a natural extension of this approach to using an online space to enhance student learning.  Quite simply, what sets it apart is that the ClassPortal focuses on a particular topic or question and uses the power of the Web to fuel this shared interest.  This one difference holds the potential to transform classroom learning from a series of engaging activities to actually building a body of knowledge and expertise.

Revisiting WebQuests in a Web 2 World. How developments in technology and pedagogy comb... - 0 views

  •  
    The WebQuest was launched in 1995 to scaffold advanced cognition by integrating the "ill-structured" nature of the World Wide Web with a process that guides novices through decisions and experiences that characterize experts' behaviors. Recently, the Web has morphed into Web 2.0 with its social networking sites, blogs, wikis and podcasts. Given this richness, revisiting WebQuests is in order. This paper reviews the critical attributes of true WebQuests and reviews recent research in thinking routines and intrinsic motivation to recommend new paths for WebQuests that could scaffold student use of Web 2.0 environments, enabling a shift toward authentic personal learning.

  •  
    In considering the impact of Web 2.0 on education, not only can the Web more efficiently deliver content, but now it also enables social interaction and more sophisticated representations of "truth." ... The CEQALL model (pronounced "seek-all") helps students find meaning in their lives and the world by engaging in deep, personally-relevant learning. By eventually internalizing the model's research-based approaches, students can build a life of self-initiated learning and contributions. Let's see how the model works.
