    "A place to share e-learning and Web 2.0 tools for education. Computers and laptops in education are important only when used with good pedagogy. Digital content and creation is an important part of the process for educators in the 21st century."

  • But the No. 1 challenge in ed tech, according to the report, is with teachers themselves and the inadequacy of their preparation and ongoing training.

      How accuarte do you think this statement is? What is your reaction to it?

      Not by choice. Lack of professional development and planning time.

      I don't work in K-12 schools, but from what I've heard and read, it sounds accurate. This is something that college programs should be addressing to prepare future teachers as well as offering continuing ed courses for current teachers. Districts should be able to allocate resources to support this effort.

      When a person has a drive to do something, they generally find a way. Although there may be other obstacles, there is truth to this statement.

      Time for training and planning is the most important factor.

      How many hours a day do they suggest a teacher prepare and be trained?
  • "The challenge is due to the fact that despite the widespread agreement on its importance, training in digital literacy skills and techniques is rare in teacher education and school district professional development programs," the report said.

      And, I would add, that the training is designed to teach the skills and not the pedagogy for using those skills in class. Teachers still see this as an aside to their job of teaching the content for the purpose of scoring high on the tests.
  • The third critical challenge cited by the authors was the failure of both technology and teaching practices to meet demands for differentiated, personalized learning.

      And shouldn't that be an easy thing to do?

  • 120 or so teachers from Victoria who are part of a pilot where all of their students will have netbooks in hand in the next few months. There seems to be a growing commitment here to put technology in the hands of kids (instead of spending huge sums on stuff that students can’t use outside of the classroom) and to thinking about how practice and pedagogy changes when that happens.

      Of course, there's more to this story, isn't there? Once you purchase the equipment (not cheap) there is also the need to make sure that your network can handle it. If not, nobody will use the laptops - at least not to the extent that they COULD be used. And then, the idea of suggesting that districts increae their budgets so that the program could be sustained, is a tough sell. Yet, the alternative is to remain stuck in the 20th century mentality and approach to teaching and learning.
  • E5 (pdf) that I’ll be giving some more attention to on the plane ride home but that at first blush has some interesting language that focuses more on learning than teaching.

      I want to check this out.
  • It’s not just about if every student had a computer; it’s about if every teacher had a computer as well. (As opposed to if every teacher had a whiteboard.) Imagine if our students were being taught in systems where technology was just a natural part of the way we created and constructed and connected and learned, that it was how we do our business. S
