ASCD Express 8.09 - The What and Why of a Professional Learning Network - 0 views

  • Members of any profession need to communicate and collaborate with colleagues to understand and improve their skills. Face-to-face collaboration is personal, but is limited by boundaries of time and space. Participants must have a common time and place for collaboration. Digital collaboration has no bounds of time or space, and collaboration can take place anytime with anyone, anywhere.
  • Technology is not a generational thing, it is a learning thing. It may be outside many educators’ comfort zones, but comfort zones are the biggest obstacles to education reform.
  • The time has come for educators to accept that they no longer have a choice about technology. To maintain relevance as educators, they need to employ relevant technology learning tools for education, connect and collaborate with other professionals to improve their skills and knowledge within their profession, and use PLNs to improve their profession and hold off the barbarian politicians and business people banging down the gates of education

"Cellphones are a Distraction" « My Island View - 1 views

  • Note-passing is the bane of a teacher’s existence and this method is technological. Again, there are procedures in place for passing notes. The teacher needs only to now stipulate written or digital; problem solved.
  •  Smartphones are powerful, mobile, personal learning devices.  But of course, there is that damned control issue thing.
  • Why not teach them how to maximize their learning. We can’t expect them to use the technology appropriately if they “learn it on the streets”.

Vineet Madan: The Digital Transformation of Education: A 21st Century Imperative - 0 views

  • 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.

  • 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.

Professional Learning Communities and Networks « The Cheeky Lit Teacher - 0 views

  • Personal Learning Communities
  • the administration is going to be actively involved in the groups as participants with teachers still being the leaders. It’s their intent to be an equal participant in the process. Teachers have been asked to choose which of the four groups they would like to join. The topics are differentiated instruction, cross-curricular projects, teaching with technology, and school culture – character education. All are meaningful, current topic areas that are connected to our school and board’s SMART goals.

Share More! Wiki » Work/Build Your Own Personal Learning Network? - 0 views

  • Below are some suggestions for using Diigo: Annotate curriculum documents and add stickies to show where tech integration is happening and could happen. That could be annotated for a group of curriculum writers. Annotate state education agency memos for your administrators. We get memos every day and they are posted online. Immediately, among a team, share the implications of the ideas in the memo, the most important points, and so on.
  • Many 21st century teachers are out there.
  • By combining the power of Diigo and Twitter, I am able to track more easily ad-hoc professional learning opportunities as they occur, as well as have conversations about them before and after they occur

Technologically Externalized Knowledge and Learning « Connectivism - 0 views

  • What is wrong with these views?
  • The real issue is not related to technology. It’s the conceptual jump that’s most difficult. For example, the functionality expressed in TEKL exists in various tools already. The key value produced by TEKL is to connect the pieces in a meaningful manner that allows for personalization, utilization of social networks, exploration of patterns, and layering of “knowledge and skills” over an existing profile to offer new learning opportunities.

The Elephant in the Room of 21st Century Learning - The Futures of School Reform - Education Week - 1 views

  • 14th century France inhabited a relatively simple personal world with maybe three sides: farm, village, and the church. Today ordinary individuals construct amazingly complex personal worlds with many facets. The game has truly changed.

Educating in the 21st Century: You Don't Know What You Don't Know - 2 views

  • Sadly, what dawned on me is that as hard as I had once worked as a teacher, I had restricted myself by my own educational paradigm. I had been stuck within a paradigm of 'coverage' and in hindsight I realize that all of the improvements I had made were incremental at best. Now, thanks in large part to my Personal Learning Network, I view teaching and learning through a new paradigm...a paradigm of 'inquiry'. (more on this in a future post!)
