    Notes on slide 1

    As a child, I didn’t want computers. That was far from my mind. Only the Space people had computers and I knew mine would be too expensive. I wanted to see through things like Superman. I wanted to have the best vision ever. I never purchased one, but if I did it would be the $2 “De Luxe Model”

    Even as a teacher, I still want the best vision ever for my students.

    But you know that we all have to have the best vision ever in education. Better than we have now.

    It’s not just having a computer in the classroom.

    It’s not just having them on a computer for so many minutes during the period.

    I teach in Georgia came from Kansas. Through my 15 years of teaching I have learned that it is remarkably easy to teach poorly; it is remarkably easy to lead poorly.
    It’s so easy for me to give you a worksheet.
    It’s so easy to show you a video.
    It’s so easy for me not to get to know you as a learner and find out where you are with your understanding of what we are talking about and how you can be challenged and how your needs and interests can be met in the learning process.

    But do you realize the students entering 1st Grade THIS fall will graduate in the year 2020? 2020. I graduated in 19 (mumble mumble).

    The Disconnect

    Generations have always suffered “generation gaps”, but today the gap is wider than ever. Based on what we know from brain-based research, the nueral pathways of pre and post 1980 brains are radically different. Having multiple media inputs is not a preference for today’s learners - it is a requirement for learning. The traditional method of teaching does not work for today’s learners. Never before has the difference been so evident between how digital natives want - no need - to learn and how digital immigrants want to teach.

    We, as digital immigrants, think that in order for students to concentrate, we need to limit the sensory inputs and control the release of information... Have you ever heard a teacher say that a student cannot read a particular book, story, etc because he/she will be teaching it next semester or next year? We have a set way of introducing information, but kids who are digital natives operate in a hyperlinked way - they want to explore information in a more random way. They operate natively in a Google=search manner and think it’s humerous that adults have to be taught how to use Google!

    When you think of Digital Native versus Digital Immigrant, you have a problem with DSL - not the communication transport for the internet - but Digital as a Second Language - just another language to support in education.

    Is it any wonder that a disconnect exists? It is imperative that we learn how to meet the needs of these new learners. However, the landscape is not bleak. from all the market research done on the millennials , we know ....

    Pre-1980 Students

    This is what was available to average 16-year-olds. This is how they received or created information.

    How many of these students could actually publish their own work? They really weren’t able to publish. Today’s students really have many more forms of communication...

    5. The Teaching & Learning Disconnect 21st Century Learners 20th Century Teachers Prefer receiving information quickly Prefer slow and controlled release from multiple multimedia sources. of information from limited sources. Prefer multitasking. Prefer single or limited tasking. Prefer to provide text before pictures, Prefer processing pictures, sounds, and video before text. sounds, and video. Prefer to provide information linearly, logically, and Prefer random access to hyperlinked multimedia information. sequentially. Prefer students to work independently Prefer to interact/network simultaneously with many others. rather than network and interact. Prefer to learn “just-in-time.” Prefer to teach “just-in-case” (it’s on the exam). Prefer learning that is engaging, relevant, instantly useful, and fun. Prefer to teach to the curriculum guide and standardized tests. *Ian Jukes and Anita Dosaj, The InfoSavvy Group, February 2003
