    Moodle comes replete with blogs, forums, RSS feeds, wikis and more that enable it to be seen as an "absolute good" that opens the door, that enables powerful ideas to slay the fears our IMHO - slay the fears that leaders hold. In many schools, it can become the technology that ensures communication, collaboration, and global learning do become the predominant learning task, without losing that academic focus.

  • There are plenty of reasons for teaching writing without a technology component, including lack of resources, lack of training, and the pressures of testing
  • l writing
  • Tech-savvy teachers tend to agree that digital writing differs from conventional composition in ways that can spur student engagement and creativity.

  • Another distinction between the two types of writing is that while traditional writing formats, such as journaling, are frequently used for private reflection, digital writing is almost always meant for an audience. Once published, digital pieces, such as blogs and YouTube videos, are often widely available and searchable on the Web.
  • By design, pen-and-paper composition is a one-person undertaking. But digital writing is often collaborative.
  • There are a variety of ways students can collaborate, says Eidman-Aadahl. For instance, they can create a text jointly, through shared documents or wikis, or they can take turns posting on a collective blog.
  • digital writing and standardized test preparation are not at odds. Both require that students know the fundamentals. Digital writing, by showing students how writing can be used, often enhances the drive to learn the basics.
  • The caveat to using digital tools, many tech-savvy educators note, is to keep focused on instructional goals, and not use technology simply for technology’s sake. It’s best to “find the appropriate technology to mesh with what the teacher’s already doing well,” says the University of Maryland’s McCaleb, “not to force it in.”

  • "It's not about the tools, Bill," Sheryl pushed back. "It's about the behaviors that the tools enable."
  • we need to spend our time and energy focusing on the kinds of essential skills that students can polish, explore, and master with the help of tech-driven learning experiences.
  • most schools are investing their professional-development technology budget in training teachers to use computers for non-instructional purposes even though new tools allow for a significant shift in pedagogy.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Moving learning forward, then, begins by introducing teachers to ways in which digital tools can be used to encourage higher-order thinking and innovative instruction across the curriculum
  • today’s students can be inspired by technology to ponder, imagine, reflect, analyze, memorize, recite, and create—but only after we build a bridge between what they know about new tools and what we know about good teaching.
  • As a result, schools sprint in new digital directions with little thought, spending thousands on technology before carefully defining the kinds of learning that they value most. The consequences are high-tech classrooms delivering meaningless, low-level instructional experiences
  • Instead of recognizing that tomorrow’s professions will require workers who are intellectually adept—able to identify bias, manage huge volumes of information, persuade, create, and adapt—teachers and district technology leaders wrongly believe that tomorrow’s professions will require workers who know how to blog, use wikis, or create podcasts.
  • refocusing our instructional attention requires a dedicated effort to separate nouns from verbs in conversations about teaching with technology
  • Verbs are the kinds of knowledge-driven, lifelong skills that teachers know matter: thinking critically, persuading peers, presenting information in an organized and convincing fashion. Nouns are the tools that students use to practice those skills
  • five skills that I believe define the most successful individuals: The ability to communicate effectively, the ability to manage information, the ability to use the written word to persuade audiences, the ability to use images to persuade audiences, and the ability to solve problems collaboratively.
