  • The LMS was not a creative decision, it was not pushing the capabilities of the Internet, it was settling for the least innovative classroom practice and repositioning that digitally. As a result classes taught within its structure generally land with a dull thud. No matter how creative and inspired the teacher or pedagogue behind the wheel, the LMS is no match for the wideness of the Internet. It was born a relic -- at its launch utterly irrelevant to its environment and its user.
  • The LMS largely erased mindfully aware teaching, and made excuses for unconscionable practice.

  • the students would not respond well to a teacher who enters the class blogosphere only to assign work or to evaluate their writing.

      Teachers who start using blogs sometimes play the old-fashioned role. It's great when they become aware of the importance of being there as one participant. Thus, teachers are more likely to be accepted and treated as a valuable source rather than the one who decides what has to be done and how good a piece of work is.
  • I was very impressed - the students had turned to the community of their peers to request feedback. Then, I realized that none of the children asked me for feedback.

      Asking for peer help is one of the new patterns. Do you believe adults would have the same behavior? I don't think so. Actually, they turn to teachers as the only legitimate source of knowledge, as the ones who can tell what is right or wrong.
  • they were not ready for corrections yet - they were simply interested in having conversations about their ideas.

  • The 21st century classroom must be a place to network, to create, to publish, to share.
  • The new classroom does not integrate technology into an outdated curriculum, but rather infuses technology into the daily performance of classroom life.
  • In this new classroom, the teacher is not the sole expert or the only source of information, but rather the teacher is the lead member of a network—guiding and facilitating as students search for answers to questions they have carefully generated.

  • It is important to note that some students may be quietly sitting in the corner engrossed in an old fashioned text.
  • Daily and total access to computers allows students to realize that technology is not something they “do” when they go to the lab or when the teacher has checked out the laptop cart, but rather technology is something they can use everyday in class to help themselves learn.
  • In this new classroom, students will begin to understand that their computer is not simply a novelty to take notes with, but it is their binder, their planner, their dictionary, their journal, their photo album, their music archive, their address book.
  • tudents will begin to understand that their computer is not simply a novel

    Outstanding teaching philosophy that gets at the heart of how and why technology should be used in learning.

  • In the flipped classroom, the students watch video lessons made by their teachers and then use class time to do more hands-on activities and work with their teacher on difficult topics.

  • it may well be the granular level of privacy afforded by Google+ that is the key to making this a successful tool for schools
  • many schools and teachers have still been reluctant to "friend" students
  • that "always public" element of Twitter that makes many nervous
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • it's also about sharing with the right people. Circles will allow what educational consultant Tom Barnett calls "targeted sharing," something that will be great for specific classes and topics
  • Skype has become an incredibly popular tool to bring in guests to a classroom via video chat -
  • teachers are already talking about the possibility of not just face-to-face video conversation but the potential for integration of whiteboards, screen-sharing, Google Docs, and other collaborative tools
  • Google + seems like the solution for someone like me who wants to use the web to have conversations about school topics with students and parents and yet not have students and parents have access to my personal posts.
