    New technological tools are expanding-and fundamentally altering-the ways students can interact with the world. Helen Haste, Visiting Professor at HGSE, offers some provocative views of the implications for education that stem from new means for accessing information, communicating with others, and participating in a community. In these video segments, building on her four decades of research, Haste describes the 21st century student as a collaborative tool user who needs a new brand of competences to thrive within a changing environment.

      I think there still is a place for facts however, I dont think students need to know anything, I want them to learn depth. As I was taught very early on, students need a certain amount of content if not you are sorting an empty drawer, they need to be given content first before manipulating it with technology.

      I had no idea.
  • My students don’t come to their portfolio meetings, so wouldn’t it be great to be able to have students make a recording of their reading fluency at the beginning of the year and then rerecord during the third marking period. It would also be nice to scan in student work and have them record their portfolio presentation, so they have a larger say in how their conference is organized.

      One of the things the wiki allows is two-way communication. I wonder how you might use a wiki with parents as two-way communication. Would there be ways they could provide feedback, ideas, etc. - a way for THEM to engage with the information rather than just consume it. After all, that is what the web is all about these days - two way communication - consuming and creating information.
  • The wiki allows people to collaborate from a multitude of locations.

      Excellent ideas! I am looking forward to hearing more in class and listening to what others are thinking about this idea.
  • What are your thoughts on this issue that I am having? Is it appropriate to post the video on my wiki for a short period of time?

      There are definitely down sides to the Kindle - no color and no touch screen. The Nook changes that. Ironically, I was investigating the Nook earlier today and will likely get one for school to try it out.

Social networking sites can be incorporated to meet the needs of those students who are strong intrapersonal learners while Podcasting meets the needs of most musical and linguistic learners. Bodily-kinesthetic learners can now travel and move through virtual worlds or take their handheld devices to record data while on the go.

      I think you're correct. It's about who you connect to. If you connect to a bunch of people who talk about what they are eating or drinking, then there probably is little value. If you connect to like-minded people who have a passion for, let's say, technology or educational futurism, then you will likely grow from the sharing of knowledge.

      Thanks Randy! I was actually slightly worried about posting this blog. My department reads all of my postings and I decided to take a risk to see if I would get a reaction from them. I did! Time and lack of insturction were the top issues for not "getting on the bus". Now I can confidently tell them that I can be of assistance in their learning.
  • The entire world has been wired for instant communication, sharing and learning, yet many are still hesitant to bridge the gap between the traditional methods that have been cultivated and ingrained by our society to the new experimental, highly addictive, personalized and engaging activities that technology can bring to the learning environment.

      Terrific goal! How will you do this? How can you bring them into the experience. I find that people in our professional that have the kinds of skills they have are so focused on themselves - "it's all about me and all the wonderful knowledge I possess.
