Our group has created a brochure to complete this assignment.
Much of the information in these articles is information that we have already read and learned in our previous courses.
Who is in your group?
Please post in 'Who is doing what?'
"The fates guide those who go willingly: those who do not, they drag."
We are in a new age of education; well at least our students are when it comes to technology and education. Many schools and teachers have not yet recognized, much less responded to the new ways students learn and communicate via the internet. There has developed a disconnect between how we as educators view and use technology and how students view and use technology. Recent studies show that students are disenfranchised from the type of technology instruction we deliver due to, poor internet access (it never works), too many filters, poor instructional use of the internet, poor use policies by the administration, the lack of professional development and technical assistance for teachers.
How do we go willingly into the future?
• It has to start at the top with the policy makers, we need to take a new approach as far as content accessibility and have students take more responsibility for their access on the internet.
• A bigger commitment to purchasing and maintaining cutting edge technology.
• On going professional development.
• Use of the internet as a virtual school (including tutoring and counseling as well as reference material).
• Create critical thinkers, by using methods like the great question press.
• Update standards to reflect the current attitude and ability of today’s student.
• Creation of technology journal and portfolios.
• Ask essential questions that create infotectives instead of trivial pursuit experts.
