My mentor twitted this article. As a Spanish teacher I found it very interesting because it shows how a parent initiative can impact education. It shows the importance of technology for the students, but more than that, the importance of parent involvement in education.
This document pinpoints how to realize the benefits of technology, schools must develop a plan for integrating technology into the curriculum. It explains that an effective technology plan is based on the shared vision of educators, parents, community members, and business leaders who have technological expertise. And how it strengthens existing curricula and supports meaningful, engaged learning for all students. There are many enriching links to go deeper into the several aspects that the article mentions.
Ooooops!!! Pretty old!! I just checked my other posts, three are fine but two are quite outdated... I'll pay more attention to dates the next time... :P
This learning journey is just beginning for me. I encourage you to tap into the resources at your fingertips. Use social media to become a connected learner. Thank you to ALL those who have helped me on my learning journey.
It is incredible how social media can connect otherwise unconnectable professionals. I have experienced numerous school decisions that parents did not support and which could have benefitted from examples carried out in other schools.
