Editor's Notes
As we look at technology and innovation and the impact new technologies are having, we tend to focus on the innovation itself and how teachers can integrate it into their teaching repertoire. For example, word processing work already done by hand, using Powerpoint to present learning already learned, and using computerized skill and drill reading programs such as Accelerated Reader. We hope to take a different starting point today and begin with an exploration of who the learners are that teachers face each day. We want to show you these learners doing what they do best ---working, playing and living with technology. We want these learners to speak for themselves and share with you what they are like and how they see themselves as users and creators of new learning landscapes. For this generation, the new literacies of ICT are rapidly becoming their everyday literacies as more teens spend more time online communicating, shopping, creating, and finding information. In fact, findings from a recent study, Young Canadians in a Wired World, by Media Awareness Network show that 96% of our young people go online from home, 37% have their own Internet-connected computer, 88% have email (web-based) accounts, 80% download music—and particularly critical to our talk tonight is the finding that ¾ of kids in grades 6 up do schoolwork online.
