    "Educational Origami is a blog and a wiki, about 21st Century Teaching and Learning. "This wiki is not just about the integration of technology into the classroom, though this is certainly a critical area, it is about shifting our educational paradigm. The world is not as simple as saying teachers are digital immigrants and students digital natives. In fact, we know that exposure to technology changes the brains of those exposed to it. The longer and stronger the exposure and the more intense the emotions the use of the technology or its content evokes, the more profound the change. This technology is increasingly ubiquitous. We have to change how we teach, how we assess, what we teach, when we teach it, where we are teaching it, and with what." A most interesting site that tells us what the learner needs to know.

  • . “People think that texting is random and that it’s born from laziness. Actually, it’s neither of those things,” she said.
  • “Flipping the Switch: Teaching Students to Code-Switch from Text Speak to Standard English”
  • The goal, she said, is for English educators to understand, and in turn help students see, that digitalk is just another form of communication. While it is ideal for one realm, it will not work in another.

  • “Students are expected to speak differently in school than they do at home,” she said. “What happens with teenagers in particular, but also young children, is that lots of times they grow up with a language at home that is very different than what they’re expected to use in school. Code-switching is teaching them how to navigate from how they talk at home to how they are expected to speak and write in school.”
  • “Students who text are actually using sophisticated speech patterns,” she said, “so if we can understand what those are, we can illustrate how they’re different than the patterns that are meant to be used in school.”
  • “It’s huge for adolescents, because what do teenagers want? They want to be part of a community of peers, but they also want their independence,” she said. “Digitalk allows for both. They can be part of a communications community, but they can manipulate the language in unique ways,” she said.
  • “Lots of times, English is taught in a very linear method: ‘First, we’re going to brainstorm. Then we’re going to draft. Then we’re going to revise. Then we’re going to publish,’” she said. “What we found was that students’ processes were extremely non-linear, and that they were actually mimicking the affordances that technology allows them,” she said. “Technology is very non-linear and interconnected. That’s why they call the Internet a web. So students move seamlessly back and forth between word processing programs and the Internet.”
  • This is important for educators, she said, because there is a disconnect when teachers ask students who are accustomed to working this way to prove what they know with nothing more than a pencil and paper. “Technology for writing and composition is a whole new ballgame. Teachers have to figure it out pretty quickly, because the students that we’re teaching are coming from a different place than we are,” she said.

    The creator of Hole in the Wall: The Future of Learning: can it be a school in the cloud. This 22+ min. talk is inspiring for those who love technology and futurist thinking. He aks for help in designing the "School in the Cloud, a learning lab in India, where children can explore and learn from each other -- using resources and mentoring from the cloud." Are we still creating for a machine that no longer exists? On anecdote about the Hole in the Wall: The children said that the machine used only English, so they had to teach themselves English to use it -- very casually.

    "Mouse Mischief integrates into Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 and Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007, letting you insert questions, polls, and drawing activity slides into your lessons. "Students can actively participate in these lessons by using their own mice to click, circle, cross out, or draw answers on the screen. " This sound like a great tool to make your presentations interactive, get students attention and help them learn as you teach. Sorry--looks like Windows only.

    List for special instances and deals with copyright issues as well.: "I'd lay odds that most people, including myself, just use Google Image Search when they need to find an image. However, there might be instances when you want to use another tool - perhaps you're a language teacher searching for just the right clip art or photography to illustrate a verb, maybe you have very young students and are concerned about what they might find on Google, possibly you're particularly teaching about copyright issues, or you want your students to easily connect an image to a writing exercise and have them send an E-Card."

  • Network Awareness Self organization (Smart Mobs) - There are examples of people organizing and mobilizing using networks in Spain, in Chile (penguin revolution), and here in the US (immigration protests).
  • Building trustworthy networks (part of crap detection) is a skill that students need to learn.
  • Attention - Collaboration - Critical Thinking - Network Awareness All of these skills need to work together. They aren't taught in schools. Students aren't teaching each other these literacies, though they are teaching each other many other things.

  • Learning how to read and write has a social component. We can use the ability to work in consort to our benefit. Takes many literacies that have an internal and external component
  • Used to have people who checked facts of books. When you put a term in a search engine you have no idea whether the information is accurate, credible or bogus.
  • First ask, "who is the author?", Is there an author. or who takes responsibility for the site.
  • Personal Learning Networks are very important.
  • 2 questions are now becoming essential. 1. How can you pluck the answer to any question out of the air? 2. How do you know that what you find is accurate?

    "Abstract: The course management system (CMS) reinforces the status quo and hinders substantial teaching and learning innovation in higher education. It does so by imposing artificial time limits on learner access to course content and other learners, privileging the role of the instructor at the expense of the learner, and limiting the power of the network effect in the learning process. The open learning network (OLN)-a hybrid of the CMS and the personal learning environment (PLE)-is proposed as an alternative learning technology environment with the potential to leverage the affordances of the Web to dramatically improve learning. Author Name(s): Jon Mott David Wiley"

  • When I look at it, I’ve got too many points of contact:
  • And if I were to trim it all back into just a few spots, would it help, or would it bottleneck?
  • I thrive on contact. I’m drowning in it. It’s not my problem. It’s a modern world problem.

  • For conference presentations or article submissions there is no substitute for invested time in reflection, writing, and re-writing. For blogging - well it goes on the page as it goes through the brain.The best preparation I received for blogging was teaching online. One of the most important elements for running a successful online course involves presence. The instructor must be "present" in the course discussion boards and blogs. Teaching online gave me tons of practice in writing rapid, hopefully thought provoking, discussion and blog posts around the curriculum and the student's work
