      AIW and Rigor and Relevance
  • Learners can practice what experts in their discipline do each day, with facilitators helping them revise and try again.
  • Facilitators-as-instructors provide informative feedback that offers learners guidance about how they might improve their performance. Both what facilitators say and how they say it has an impact on learners.

  • So how do educators help kids become problem-finders when they don’t know what the problem is or where the next one might be coming from? “A lot of people hate this word but I think we have to take it seriously, which is relevance,” Pink said. “There’s something to be said for connecting particular lessons to something in the real world.”
  • For instance, application of math principles, which has real relevance in the real world. “Even with my own kids, to some extent I see math has become an abstract code designed to get a right answer rather than seeing that math explains why this building is standing up, or why the traffic is going slow right now, or why the 49ers are kicking a field goal rather than going for first down.”

School personnel who take this stand contend that students need to acquire the skills and dispositions of responsible Internet usage and to be held accountable for their behavior.

  • a more inclusive process will result in better policy and more “buy-in” from those who are affected by the policy. Critical to the success of AUP policies is the sense of ownership of the policies by their prime target: students.

  • The law requires any school district that receives E-Rate funding to filter or block visual depictions that are obscene, that contain child pornography, or material harmful to minors. Schools are required to enforce the operation of such technology protection measures (i.e., keep the filter operating) during any use of such computers by minors. The law also requires districts to have in place a policy of Internet safety that includes the use of a filter or blocking procedure for district computers used by minors.
  • Section 215 is most relevant to schools and requires them, as part of their Internet safety policy, to educate minors about appropriate online behavior. This includes how to interact with others on social networking websites and in chat rooms as well as cyberbullying awareness and response.
  • Policies on cell phone usage vary from districts that forbid students from bringing them into the school building (such as the Student/Parent Handbook in the New Haven’s  Connecticut schools), to schools that provide for limited use, to schools which are making use of them for instructional purposes
