  • If you create wikis for each student as an ePortfolio and showcase of their work, your students can now include and share all of their Google Docs work. They can easily create new Google Documents from within Wikispaces or move existing Google Documents into and out of their wiki. It’s so easy for students to organize and present their artifacts, add reflections, and put context around their work in your class for parent conferences.

Four Pillars of Technology Integration | nashworld - 0 views

  • Think transformation of the way teaching and learning is done in your district, as opposed to integration into it as it exists.

      The success comes when new lessons are created creatively utilizing the technology. It feels awkward when technology is just tacked on to an old lesson - just so there is technology.
  • Learn what they learn.

      Unless people learn / play with the technology, they can not possibly understand the potential power in the classroom.
  • don’t filter the very usefulness out of the web

      Love the wording of this ... sadly it is so true

  • The fourth pillar of “instructional model” is more than a quick soundbyte allows.  I see three levels of this notion with increasing value as follows:  1) You have thought about and encouraged good instructional practices in your building/district.  2) You have a well-articulated plan for effective instructional practice that is building or districtwide.  3)  You have a true learner-centered instructional model in place in grades K-12 that credits the constructivist nature of human learning.
  • At this point, the vast majority of school systems are behind the curve in this area.  Being this far behind might just have one distinct advantage.  If there is no way to see any of the individual trees in a forest, you are likely going to be forced to start your mission with a whole-forest view to begin with. 
  • You don’t need a flashlight.  It’s not that dark in there anymore.  Trust that there are others who have proceeded down this path before you, and they have learned many important lessons.  Collaborate.  Learn from their successes and failures.  Do not go it alone. 
  • Ask yourself: what can we do with these new tools available today that we couldn’t do before?  If we could remake our curriculum any way we wanted, how would we do it? 
  • All systems need what I will call an “innovation engine.”  Whatever the system, whatever the setup, schools and school systems need pockets of sponsored innovation.
  • Soon after access is all around you, it doesn’t even feel like “technology,” it just feels like the way things are done.  This is a good thing, for when technology becomes invisible, we can finally focus on the value added from new uses of these tools. 
  • So where does all of this leave you?  How many of these pillars have been already constructed around you?  What have you done to help in that construction?

    Interesting blog which addresses technology integration from the perspectives of all the parties involved - admins, technology coaches, teachers, students, etc. Worth the reading.

    This is a good article authored by Melissa Kelly, an educator affiliated with several Florida programs and also a proponent for technology in the classroom. The article touches on several of our LTMS 600 classroom discussion topics. New literacies, cost/open source options, parental buy-in and other (tech integration) concerns are highlighted. Several of her discussion points are confirming for many of our classroom topics.

    Yodio offers an integrated, one-stop digital publishing service where anyone can go to self-record, produce, and share audio recordings (podcasts) and personal broadcasts (audio synchronized with digital photos). Using Yodio's free production system, most anyone can combine digital photos with their recorded audio to create rich media presentations. What is a rich-media presentation? Think voice narrated power point presentations or photo albums. Now think of them being shared in a player similar to YouTube, so they can be streamed throughout the internet or the player can be embedded in other websites, blogs, etc. This is personal broadcast with the sharing part operating on steroids! You can link, e-mail, embed, and in many cases download as an MP3 file. It's made to share memories and photos that are made more interesting and informative by adding your own voice.

    We have used this program at our school and specifically in our Alt Ed program to meet some of our program's unique needs. Since math is a little different curricular animal, being incrementally comprehensive, it has become a valuable tool. We use it to meet remedial and even for direct instructional purposes. It is not free however, as licencing is required based on projected student enrollments.

      Here is one thing that I feel my district is weak in. Tools don't seem to be placed via need (or at least the need isn't clearly expressed) they seem to be given because they were advertised as a fix all miracle cure for..., well I'm not sure what, because I don't know the goal. (Remember?)  I know this isn't a district website, but I wonder: What do other districts do to analyze tools before implementation?

  • The beginning of cheap failure.
    • L Butler
      L Butler on 06 Jun 12
       
      Great concept = cheap failure. We have the opportunity for almost everything we create to be a work in progress. You can always learn and build upon your initial attempts. This should give people more freedom to try without the feeling of absolute and unrecoverable failure.
    • Ryan Donnelly
      Ryan Donnelly on 06 Jun 12
       
      Not just cheap failure but also instant failure, which is important to our students as well. We talk about rapid prototyping in the program and some in my classroom, which I think is an important note about this technology and an important concept for our students to grasp/be able to deal with. It's a vehicle for learning.

      'instant failure' - great phrase. It is important that they can make mistakes in a safe environment and have the guidance to learn from the mistakes.

      I guess my question is why would be considered a cheap failure, constant better/cheaper alternatives, integration in today's technology?
