  • Some of the latest technology tools for the classroom, however, promise to ease the challenges of differentiating instruction more creatively and effectively, ed-tech experts say, even in an era of high-stakes federal and state testing mandates. New applications for defining and targeting students’ academic strengths and weaknesses can help teachers create a personal playlist of lessons, tools, and activities that deliver content in ways that align with individual needs and optimal learning methods.
  • Preliminary data showed significant student progress toward mastering the skills targeted in the program, officials say
  • “By leveraging technology to play a role in the delivery of instruction,” he says, “we can help to complement what live teachers do.”

  • Making the Transition Experts caution, however, that instituting such large-scale change is not simply a matter of putting new tools in place. As in San Diego, most teachers will need extensive professional development to use digital tools and learn the best ways of teaching with technology.
  • ‘Feedback to Children’
  • “We have this generation of students that yearns to customize everything they come into contact with,”

  • blend the PLC processes and platform into processes the teachers are already following and maybe even save them some time while doing so.
  • if teachers can see the time savings in what they are already doing, they will adopt a digital professional learning community process.

  • As we push forward with the digital transformation of education, it's worth taking a look at just how greatly technology can impact teaching and learning in this country -- and what's at stake, not just for our students but our society as a whole.
  • students thirst for connections between what they're learning in the classroom (and how) and what they see happening in the real world
  • Increasing engagement is about

  • the very real task of connecting them more closely to their coursework, to their teachers and to each other.
  • One of the best ways to do this is to use technology to collect data that tells us where they're strong and where they're weak, how they learn best, and use this data to create personalized pathways
  • The simplest reason why we should continue our push to bring technology to our classrooms is also the best one: it works
  • we must listen to feedback from our teachers and make sure that they have the training and support they need to implement this technology effectively.

  • counteract the New WWW's potentially harmful impact on youth, educators must use technology to create learning experiences that are real, rich, and relevant.
  • Next will come 4G, in which data rates are expected to be 100 times faster than those in this first 3G wave. As the delivery platform of broadband content and functionality shifts from computer to personal device, we will be surrounded by a multimedia aura that accompanies us wherever we go
  • The plan is that you'll use your phone to spend money everywhere, all the time.

  • What choices do we expect them to make if their pockets are loaded with cash and the shelves bulge with penny candy—especially when there's no parent in sight? The choice won't be between yes and no, but between what kind? and what next? Maybe someone needs to watch over this New WWW.
  • Children believe that getting whatever they want will make them happy. As adults, we know otherwise.
  • engaging in personally meaningful actions, and performing service to something larger than themselves.
  • we must also acknowledge that schools have too much of both. But the joy of learning has neither! One of the most powerful definitions of teaching I know comes from Maria Harris: “Teaching is the creation of a situation in which subjects, human subjects, are handed over to themselves”
  • We can “hand students over to themselves.” We can engage them in the joys of learning, of making meaning, of being part of something larger than themselves, of testing themselves against authentic challenges. We can shift them from passivity and consumption to action and creativity. And believe it or not, the New WWW can help us.
  • New WWW shifts learning power to the students themselves.
  • students can demonstrate their learning in a persuasive essay, a sardonic blog, a moving short film, a robust wiki entry, or a humorous podcast, why would we demand deadening conformity?
  • I call this kind of Web site a ClassAct Portal: Class because the site involves a whole class of students; Act because it supports authentic, active learning; ClassAct because it provides a real-world forum for students to exercise their best efforts; and Portal because the site serves as a window to resources, information, activities, and communities.
