  • Tip: Sticky notes are an effective way to start a virtual conversation among teams of students on the merits of a website.

      I REALLY agree with this. Maybe not so much for elementary, but for junior and senior high I think this is a must-do. Your thoughts?

FRONTLINE: digital nation | PBS - 0 views

    If you've not seen this page, then you REALLY need to stop in and explore. This does a great job about showcasing and explaining the notion of a Digital Nation

    What an innovative, forward-looking principal to embrace technology the way he did! I was impressed that the percentage of students on grade level rose 53% in 3years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW! These are the types of videos our school boards and administrators need to see. This is far more effective than teaching to the test and constant reviewing for PSSAs!

Welcome | Teaching Copyright - 0 views

  •  
    "There's a lot of misinformation out there about legal rights and responsibilities in the digital era. This is especially disconcerting when it comes to information being shared with youth. Kids and teens are bombarded with messages from a myriad of sources that using new technology is high-risk behavior. Downloading music is compared to stealing a bicycle - even though many downloads are lawful. Making videos using short clips from other sources is treated as probably illegal - even though many such videos are also lawful. This misinformation is harmful, because it discourages kids and teens from following their natural inclination to be innovative and inquisitive. The innovators, artists and voters of tomorrow need to know that copyright law restricts many activities but also permits many others. And they need to know the positive steps they can take to protect themselves in the digital sphere. In short, youth don't need more intimidation - what they need is solid, accurate information."

  • Teachers exhibit knowledge, skills, and work processes representative of an innovative professional in a global and digital society. Teachers: a. demonstrate fluency in technology systems and the transfer of current knowledge to new technologies and situations. b. collaborate with students, peers, parents, and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation. c. communicate relevant information and ideas effectively to students, parents, and peers using a variety of digital-age media and formats. d. model and facilitate effective use of current and emerging digital tools to locate, analyze, evaluate, and use information resources to support research and learning.

      How many of your teachers are capable of doing this? Do you honestly feel that it's important that they do this, or is it sufficient to focus on NCLB?
    • Mrs Huber
       
      I am hoping I become proficient enough in some of these "new" technology ideas that I can host after school learning sessions for teachers who want to also explore these items. Of course, there will be no pay for it. LOL
    • Vicki Barr
       
      Some of our teachers are capable of this. I think it is important that teachers try - the teachers that are willing to make mistakes in front of the students - learn more - and the students help (and they enjoy helping!)
    • Scott Brewer
       
      My question is how does this fit into NCLB? Can we legislatively work to blend the two?!
    • Emma Clouser
       
      We really can't ignore NCLB at this point, so I think the question is how do teachers mesh the two together?
    • Mary Richards
       
      Communication with parents via e-mail is so much easier than trying to connect on the phone, but it can become overwhelming sometimes. I spend a great deal of time composing and revising e-mails to parents, careful of what I put in writing.
    • Beth Hartranft
       
      TIME - we need time to do this!
    • anonymous
       
      Probably not all the teachers; however, to prepare our children for the world we should all be putting our efforts toward these goals.
    • Mrs Huber
       
      @Beth- I totally agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Amy Soule
       
      I tried to get a teacher to collaborate on having the students write persuasive book reviews to be posted online (either or Moodle, or Destiny, or whatever), and was told we could certainly do that, AFTER the PSSA tests were over. That's where the focus is! We need to use the techology to teach the basics!
    • Mrs Huber
       
      @Amy- I agree..the question is HOW to do it?
  • develop and model cultural understanding and global awareness by engaging with colleagues and students of other cultures using digital-age communication and collaboration tools.
    • L Butler
       
      This is a powerful tool ... but as a teacher you have to be able to give up some of the control. The spontanous learning opportunities involving technology are enriching. My 6th graders especially ask lots of cultural questions, and we look them up online together or we find an expert to ask.

      Does this sound familiar? Collaboration? Which group read that in the Horizon Report?
    • Scott Brewer
       
      Project teams sounds like something I would love to be a part of, and my students to be a part of!
    • Mrs Huber
       
      @Jim- Yes, this does sound familiar. I served on a tech steering committee this spring and that is how I learned of these standards. Not sure the school board knows of them though.
    • Emma Clouser
       
      Seems like using diigo would help us meet these standards:)
    • Emily Reinert
       
      I think letter C is fascinating - until yesterday, I hadn't thought about students communicating with other students around the WORLD.
    • Mrs Huber
       
      Before I had this class I didn't think Distance Learning was important, but when asked if I thought the district should get a set up for our elementary school, I said yes, since why say no! I hope we get it now because I will be able to use it with the knowledge I am gaining this week. Very cool!
    • Beth Hartranft
       
      thoughts for 2.b. - We need to teach more than just office products!
    • Amy Soule
       
      Should they be allowed to text each other during class? That's communication, using one of their favorite formats!
    • Mary Richards
       
      This is particularly apt for middle school students who are very, very social! They love working in groups and do a better job of holding each other accountable than I do!
    • Emma Clouser
       
      ISTE Educational Technology Standards for Students
