H.E.A.T. Framework - 2 views

  •  
    "In a digitally-charged learning environment, the key is to turn up the H.E.A.T. on student learning. H.E.A.T. is an acronym that is synonymous with digital-age learning (i.e., 21st Century Skills) and represents Student Output in terms of student: Higher order thinking, Engaged learning, Authentic connections, and Technology use."

AASA :: Harnessing Kids' Tech Fascination - 0 views

  • Executive Perspective Harnessing Kids’ Tech Fascinationby DANIEL A. DOMENECH I am intimidated by people like Alan November whose fingers glide over their computer keys and in the process go to websites that offer the answers to all the questions that would otherwise go unanswered. I do e-mail and an occasional PowerPoint presentation. I am proud of the fact I now can do e-mail on my BlackBerry as well. That’s the extent of my prowess in technology. Daniel A. Domenech Jillian, my 17-year-old high school senior, is another story. She sleeps with her iPhone under her pillow. If it were waterproof, I am sure that she would bathe with it. She does incredible things with her MacBook, from videos to post on YouTube to the content of her Facebook pages. Getting her to do her homework is a challenge, but getting her to turn off her tech tools and go to sleep is an even bigger challenge.This is the message that November, Keith Krueger and other presenters at our AASA Seattle Summit in midsummer conveyed: Education is missing the boat by not taking advantage of the love affair between our kids and technology.Personal PanicI was a young superintendent

Personal Panic I was a young superintendent on Long Island, N.Y., when, in 1978, I bought the first set of Commodore PET computers for our schools. You could play Space Invaders on it, but mostly you had to learn to program the darn thing to get it to do anything. High school courses focused primarily on learning programming language. Few could afford to buy a Commodore for home use and the power of the Internet had yet to be unleashed.

European Virtual Museum - 0 views

  •  
    * Need Flash! MU.S.EU.M's aim is to offer some reflections on internet related to the heritage of the European ancient civilizations by creating the "Virtual museum of the European roots" which we envisage as a e-service and take as a pilot project for the prehistoric collections held n trust by the partner museums. This web site documents how Europe is founded upon a common ancient matrix, which is consequential to the rigid boundaries, to continuous migrations and interactions and to a plurality of cultural roots and imprints.
