      It's all about collaboration. 
  • “The age of the know-it-all author who went into her room for three months and figured something out that no one figured out, and had a whole idea that was hers alone – it’s over.”

      I believe this is called "processing" information, making understanding from what you're reading.  The physical act of reading, is not what's important, it's making sense, and constructing knowledge and understanding from what you read.
  • The boy reads for a bit, goes to Google when he wants to learn more about a particular topic, chats online with his friend who are reading the same book, and then goes back to reading.

  • I used the “CONTROL THE PRESENTATION” tool available to me as owner of the document.
  • if the children were to use the Google Talk client then we could be looking at a variety of different texts and not just something created in Google Presentation.
  • It is taking what the children enjoy doing and harnessing that engagement, attempting to merge and utilise the skills they use outside of school to impact on their engagement with their learning.

    Google Apps Presentation used to guide reading comprehension.  Tom's detailed explanation of how he set everything up, and any pitfalls to watch out for are always very useful.

  • you can’t take the old model and apply it to a new medium….you need a whole new model of learning
  • “On average, students in online learning conditions performed better than those receiving face-to-face instruction.”
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Maybe it’s the best teachers taking the best approach, which incorporates the use of online tools to enhance the learning. In the end a good teacher is still needed.

    Four great articles have come to light lately that point to research being done and what many of us in the Ed Tech community have been saying for a long time might just be on the horizon. That is that this technology stuff can improve education.
