2. 21st Century Classrooms
Technology changed our
world irreversibly.
It changes the world our
students are growing up in
and are going out to as they
leave to go to college
and/or work.
PunyaMishra – Challenge to
parenting, challenge to
teaching
How do we make sense of
it?

Students are:
Interacting
Collaborating
Exploring
Creating
Demonstrating Knowledge
Constructing Meaning
Practicing New Information Literacy Skills
7. EmergingTech
Chris Dede – Harvard Graduate School, Learning
Technologies “Challenge is that many people focus on
technology itself.You can’t just put tech in and expect
magic. Learning Focus.We need to change that. Many
interesting shifts are occurring. School’s Administrators
are looking closely at embracing technology.”
How can we change this inclination and create learning
activities that help students to learn better?
8. Research
(Mishra& Koehler, 2006, Koehler &Mishra, 2008), Harris &
Hofer (2006, Harris, 2008) suggest that a logical approach
to helping teachers to better integrate technologies in
their teaching is to directly link students’ content-related
learning needs with particular content-based learning
activities and related educational technologies that will
best support the activities’ successful implementation.
11. Activity
How are teachers using technology in instruction?
What is being used? List tools.
How it is used. Pedagogy?
12. How isTech Used?
Research schools. Just because the technology is used
does not change learning. Deep understanding did not
come from just using technology. HOW it is used makes a
difference.
All three components must be used well together to
advance student knowledge in the 21st Century
Teachers need more that content, pedagogy and tech
knowledge.They need to know how to take that tech and
help it to transform learning.
14. Activity 2
Content Focus –What content does this lesson focus on?
Pedagogical Focus- What pedagogical practices are used
Technology Focus –What technologies are used?
PCK-Do these pedagogical practices make concepts clearer
and or foster deeper learning
TCK- Does this technology make the content better or
transform it for the student for better learning?
TPK – Do the pedagogical practices maximize the use of
existing tech for teaching and evaluating learning?
15. Going Forward
What changes can we make to blend these concepts.What
types of discussions can you have with teachers?With
students?
How can we share student work online?
