      The technology you use is dependent on the resources you have availble to you. If laptops and IPODS are not accessible to every student, a smart board might be another option. That way students could all watch the samething as a group.
  • Teachers who would like to produce a single episode instead of a series are invited to participate in the Our City Podcast.

AT&T Knowledge Network Explorer: 21st Century Literacies: Building a Framework - 1 views

  • As educators transition from more traditional teaching methods to those that are inquiry based, students must self-direct their own learning, cooperate with classmates from diverse backgrounds, and think critically about the abundance of information made available through technological developments.
    • Teresa Coffman
       
      This is our goal as educators. Slowly we are working with our students to make them life long learners and to connect to information through inquiry. This does not happen over night but it is a process that can be developed and nurtured so students can become self-directed in their own learning and use technology tools effectively in an instructional manner.

  • fluency with technology" focuses on understanding the underlying concepts of technology and applying problem-solving and critical thinking to using technology.
    • Teresa Coffman
       
      Important point. We must be able to use a variety of technology tools to think critically about problems and to share our new understandings with others. This ability to think using complex and dynamic tools is a key element in the knowledge economy that we find ourselves participating in daily. We become more fluent with technology tools so we can dig deeper into problems using a taxonomy of skills - finding, evaluating,using, sharing, participating, and reasoning. A lot different than only knowing that technology tools are there and using them to scratch the surface - not understanding how they fit into the bigger picture of discovery.

      this is a good example of how inquiry works in the classroom. Thought questions. What do you notice while watching this video? How did the collaboration work between the teacher and the librarian? Why is it important to make sure that it aligns with the learning objectives? How is formative assessment being utilized throughout this activity?
