PL + ICT = EPL Poor Learning + ICT = Expensive Poor Learning Rochelle Jensen - August - 2011

“ The real magic in a quality learning experience comes not from boxes, wires and expensive digital equipment. The real magic comes from teachers who have high expectations, create relevant and challenging learning experiences, supported and scaffold pupils to success, and provide quality feedback for their pupils.” Trevor Bond Rochelle Jensen - August - 2011

“ ... e-learning forms part of a conscious choice of the best and most appropriate ways of promoting effective learning ” .
JISC, 2004,pg10

Literacy teaching and learning for the 21 st century
“ … it is clearly no longer sufficient to teach students how to make meaning solely of and with print texts. Students are faced with multimodal texts on a daily basis, and need the capacity to make meaning of and with them . They also need a metaknowledge of meaning making that they can apply in to texts of the future… ”
(Sue McDowall, 2010)

Results from NEMP Rochelle Jensen - August - 2011

** Making meaning of ideas or information they receive (Listening, Reading, Viewing ) ** Creating meaning for themselves or others (Speaking, Writing, Presenting ) Consider the use of multi-modal forms: The New Zealand Curriculum - English English is structured around two strands, each encompassing the oral, written, and visual forms of the language.

Consumers : Analyse and interpret meaning Producers : Convey meaning by being creative with literacy and design Rochelle Jensen - August - 2011 Students make meaning of a text by understanding and interpreting the text’s sets of signs or symbols, which are called semiotic systems. There are five semiotic systems: 1. linguistic (oral and written language, for example, use vocabulary and grammar), 2. visua l (still and moving images, for example, use colour, vectors, and viewpoint), 3. auditory (music and sound effects, for example, use volume, pitch, and rhythm), 4. gestural (facial expression and body language, for example, use move- ment speed and stillness), and 5. spatial (layout and organisation of objects and space, for example, use proximity, direction, and position).
