the learning environment we create for them should reflect this 9

FINDING THE PATH TO 21C LEARNING

SHIFT YOUR HEADSPACE • global connections and collaborations • rigor, critical thinking skills, curiosity and creativity • digital citizenship

SHIFT YOUR HEADSPACE • immerse yourself in a participatory culture • think across disciplines, spaces, functions and knowledge connections

how do we get new media tools into our classrooms?

We now have a information ecology that is an open, self-managed, fostered, and conducive to knowledge flow between content and connections. http://www.ﬂickr.com/photos/cdm/54246114/

quot;This new media environment can be enormously disruptive to our current teaching methods and philosophies. Students need to move from being simply knowledgeable to being knowledge-able.quot; http://www.academiccommons.org/commons/essay/knowledgable-knowledge-able - Michael Wesch, 2009

Students 2.0 talking about blogging quot;The fact that teachers consistently remain where students don’t is painfully obvious. It’s natural that students move on and stop caring extrinsically about their grade in English or how to integrate blogging with their classroom. They’re able to blog and find their own life teachers for themselvesquot;. http://students2oh.org/

educational origami “We the teachers are the immigrants and our students are the natives, brought up in a world where there has always been computers and the internet, where information is always instant and varied. Our teaching and their learning must reflect this”. http://edorigami.wikispaces.com/
