Old Rules, New Game Old Rules Economics use capital Capital is mobile, and it seeks productivity Old Game Productivity used labor Education of the few, labor by the masses Education process reflect a community New Game Productivity uses technology & knowledge Education of all, knowledge for the masses Educational results create a community

Old Rules

Economics use capital

Capital is mobile, and it seeks productivity

Old Game

Productivity used labor

Education of the few, labor by the masses

Education process reflect a community

New Game

Productivity uses technology & knowledge

Education of all, knowledge for the masses

Educational results create a community

Really Big (and Hard) Questions.. How do we prepare our students for success in a knowledge based, technology driven, globally competitive world? How do we align to our community aspirations for quality of life & strategies for economic opportunity How do we transform our schools into high performance environments where students are expected to be and are high achievers?

How do we prepare our students for success in a knowledge based, technology driven, globally competitive world?

How do we align to our community aspirations for quality of life & strategies for economic opportunity

How do we transform our schools into high performance environments where students are expected to be and are high achievers?

So where is this all leading…. STEM Education and 21 st century Literacy Skills

Why are 21st Century skills so important?

The nature of work is changing.

Why 21 st Century Skills? Subject Matter Mastery 20 th Century 21 st Century Number of Jobs : Job Requirement Teaching Model 1-2 Jobs Mastery of One Field 10-15 Jobs Critical Thinking Across Disciplines Integration of 21 st Century Skills into Subject Matter

The requirements of the 21 st Century work force are changing?

We need to prepare our students to be effective 21 st Century citizens.

Today’s students are no longer the people our educational system was designed to teach. Prensky, 2001

Prensky, 2001

Students learn from thinking….thinking is engaged by activity. Jonassen, 2003

So how do WE engage our students in an education system that was outdated for their parents????

Facts About the Internet It is estimated that: A man of the 17 th century encountered in his lifetime less information than we can read in a weekday issue of the New York Times. It takes about 4 months for the amount of information in the world to double. Humans can process visual images 60,000 times faster than text. The Internet has over four billion pages. In 2004, 8,000,000 American adults created weblogs.

What is Web 2.0? Web 2.0 is the transition of the Internet from a place where we surf for information and consume information to a place where we are creators of information. We go from surfing the wave to BEING the wave as we contribute and share information on the Internet ocean.

Setting the Bar High Find an exemplary class blog, direct your students to it, and give them time to read over the post and comments. http://kakos4english2006.blogspot.com/ http://thefischbowl.blogspot.com/ Ask them for feedback—which comments are powerful and why? Which ones are less captivating and why? When does the blog get good and why? Get a discussion going—why do we blog? How is it different from turning in a piece of writing to your teacher? Or having a large class discussion?

Get a discussion going—why do we blog? How is it different from turning in a piece of writing to your teacher? Or having a large class discussion?

What We’ve Liked About the Blog Quiet students are given a powerful voice. Students grow more adept at reacting to each other’s ideas. Class is truly extended beyond the walls of the classroom. Students produce information on the web instead of passively absorbing it. Technology is integrated into every subject. Students take their words seriously and begin to understand what it means to be published. Students just like it. A lot.

Establishing Expectations Have your students create the class blog expectations, or have your blog expectations ready to go. Print out or direct them to the AHS “Safe Blogging Policy” as well. Talk about blog safety; emphasize that the blogs are linked directly to the school and need to follow the class guidelines as well. Let them know that administrators can and will read their personal blogs.

Send in the Reinforcements… Students need feedback, they get excited when they see their work published. If possible approve their comments instantly. Try having a blog for homework that night for immediate reinforcement of what they have just learned. Try to give them immediate positive feedback; bring up their blogs the next day and commend them on what they did well.

A BIG Suggestion Use the blog to replace something that you’re already doing; don’t use it to add. Never blog for blogging’s sake. Think about how the blog can be used to enhance an assignment (links to audio/video clips, artwork, online texts, other blogs, etc.).
