Changing Education with Web 2.0 Tools

[object Object],By Cindy Wright Instructional Technology Specialist Columbus City Schools I believe that we cannot even begin to imagine the changes that are going to take place as the two-way nature of the Internet begins to flower, and that even those of us who have spent time imagining this future will be astounded by what happens.  ~ Steve Hargadon Photocredit :http://leadinganswers.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/2007/03/15/monarch_stages.jpg
Engaging today’s students means tapping into what is important to them.
We have a responsibility to prepare them for their future, not our past.
Technology allows learners get their information ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Today’s students are  Digital Natives  ( Marc Prensky ) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
How students live with technology Different kinds of experiences lead to different brain structures.   Dr. Bruce D. Perry, Baylor College of Medicine

When I  Become A Teacher
Technology is changing ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Why Change? You change because you understand learning is dynamic and that to not change means to quit growing.  ~ Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach http://21stcenturylearning.typepad.com/blog/ Photo credit :http://leadinganswers.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/2007/03/15/monarch_stages.jpg
21 st  Century Skills ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Applied skills refer to those skills that enable new entrants to use the basic knowledge acquired in school to perform in the workplace.
What Employers Want: ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
•  Professionalism/Work Ethic ,  Teamwork/Collaboration  and  Oral Communications   are rated as the three “most important” applied skills needed by entrants into today’s workforce. •  Knowledge of Foreign Languages   will “increase in importance” in the next five years, more than any other basic skill, according to over 60 percent (63.3 percent) of the employer respondents. •  Making Appropriate Choices Concerning Health and Wellness   is the No. 1 emerging content area for future graduates entering the U.S. workforce as reported by three-quarters of the employer respondents (76.1 percent). •  Creativity/Innovation   is projected to “increase in importance” for future workforce entrants, according to more than 70 percent (73.6 percent) of employer respondents. Currently, however, more than half of employer respondents (54.2 percent) report new workforce entrants with a high school diploma to be “deficient” in this skill set.

Editor's Notes

  1. Welcome everyone. My name is Cindy Wright, and I am an Instructional Technology Specialist with Columbus City Schools, in Columbus, Ohio. I’d like to share with you today some information regarding the newest Web 2.0 technologies and how they can have a positive impact in the classroom. My hope is that this presentation will encourage you to try at least one of the technologies I introduce. The presentation will be saved, and you will have access to it and my speaker notes after the session. So if I go too fast and you miss something on a screen, just keep in mind you can always view it again later at your own leisurely pace.
