Technology Integration Matrix - 0 views

  •  
    The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) illustrates how teachers can use technology to enhance learning for K-12 students. The TIM incorporates five interdependent characteristics of meaningful learning environments: active, constructive, goal directed (i.e., reflective), authentic, and collaborative (Jonassen, Howland, Moore, & Marra, 2003). The TIM associates five levels of technology integration (i.e., entry, adoption, adaptation, infusion, and transformation) with each of the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments. Together, the five levels of technology integration and the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments create a matrix of 25 cells

From Knowledgable to Knowledge-able: Learning in New Media Environments | Academic Commons - 0 views

  •  
    This is written regarding post secondary students, but I think that it applies equally well to K-12.

    "This new media environment can be enormously disruptive to our current teaching methods and philosophies. As we increasingly move toward an environment of instant and infinite information, it becomes less important for students to know, memorize, or recall information, and more important for them to be able to find, sort, analyze, share, discuss, critique, and create information. They need to move from being simply knowledgeable to being knowledge-able."

  • Explore Our Maps » Environment » Ecology » Ecological Framework » Terrestrial Ecozones Map.
  • On the Terrestrial Ecozones map, the researchers click Get Info from Map and then on each province. The recorder writes down the ecozone name and physiography on the outline map of Canada.
  • to help them decide if the ecozone falls into a category of polar, grasslands, rainforest or forest if the answer is not obvious.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Students create a master map that indicates where the polar, grassland, rainforest or forest regions are in Canada. They can indicate which parts represent the regions using illustrations or textually. They can use an overhead projector to make a large wall map of Canada. They should draw symbols that represent polar, grassland, desert, rainforest or forested regions.
  • Student groups are assigned a region (polar, grassland, desert, rainforest or forest). Each group uses electronic or non-electronic sources to find another country that has an example of that region, for example, the polar region of Norway, Russia or the African Savannah. They can begin research in the Atlas’ Learning Resources Section and select Other Online Atlases.
