Seymour Papert describes bricolage as a way to learn and solve problems by trying, testing and playing around. How do we learn by playing around with digital stuff? Can we create deep learning experiences that encourage students to show and share what they know with the world and contribute to the global knowledge commons? A variety of concrete student centred learning experiences are shared that leverage the power of the world wide web and focus teachers instructional design through lenses that are student centred, knowledge centred, assessment centred, and community centred. We look at both small short term assignments and larger long term projects that demonstrate how your students can learn and share as 21st century bricoleurs

Hacking the Creative Brain - Devoxx Belgium, 2014Denise Jacobs
As tech professionals, what we need is a way to work better so that we can create more, right? Through exploring various concepts and approaches, including the neuroscience of creativity, productivity techniques, and emerging practices that spur innovation, we'll discover not only the ways in which our brains work best, but also what’s behind the times when we feel on fire with creativity and when we don't. We’ll translate this information into processes and techniques for dramatically enhanced creative productivity. Beware: this session challenges the standard norms around concentration, focus, productivity, and may change how you work…for the better.
Discover why at times we feel on fire with creativity — and at other times we don’t. We'll explore the neuroscience of creativity, productivity techniques, and emerging practices that spur innovation and help our brains work best. Beware: This session challenges the standard norms for concentration, focus, and productivity and may change how you work — for the better. Presented at AdobeMax 2013.
This presentation explores concepts around the sources of inspiration and ideas and practices for eliminating blocks and accessing the spark when you need it to develop and execute great work.
In visual arts and graphic design, white space is fundamental to allowing a creation to exist, by creating delineation and focus. Similarly, in our lives, creativity often sprouts from the "white space" of time: the moments in our increasingly busy schedules between activities and thoughts that allow the subconscious to better absorb and connect information. Clearly, in order to be more creative, we need to open up this "in-between" space in our lives, but once we've done so, how can we best capitalize upon the brain's natural creative capacities? In this talk, we'll explore several counter-intuitive and potentially subversive methods for leveraging this "white space" to foment innovative thinking creative productivity.
Back to the Basics...What Really Matters NowDean Shareski
The document discusses creating joyful, engaging, and meaningful learning experiences for students. It advocates for sparking students' sense of wonder, using technology to showcase fascinating content, and focusing on community and sharing among educators. While standards are important, joy, engagement, and inspiration should be the highest priorities. Learning environments should cultivate messiness, passion, and willingness to learn from others.
The document is a slide presentation about back to school and basics. It discusses the speaker's identity as a teacher, golfer, husband/father, and community builder. It includes images related to nostalgia for childhood, managing attention in the digital age, the importance of play, storytelling and community. The presentation emphasizes building connections between educators and creating joyful learning experiences for students.

Slides from a presentation at the Learning 2.011 Conference in Shanghai, China. 9 September 2011.
Seymour Papert describes bricolage as a way to learn and solve problems by trying, testing and playing around. How do we learn by playing around with digital stuff? Can we create deep learning experiences that encourage students to show and share what they know with the world and contribute to the global knowledge commons? A variety of concrete student centred learning experiences are shared that leverage the power of the world wide web and focus teachers instructional design through lenses that are student centred, knowledge centred, assessment centred, and community centred. We look at both small short term assignments and larger long term projects that demonstrate how your students can learn and share as 21st century bricoleurs.
This document outlines three pedagogical principles for lesson planning:
1) Engage students' preconceptions and misconceptions from previous learning.
2) Relate new concepts to factual knowledge and conceptual frameworks.
3) Facilitate learning through metacognitive strategies like self-monitoring.
The document advocates publishing student work to assess understanding and encourage creative expression that educates others.
1) The document describes a day in the life of a teacher who teaches using technology. It outlines the teacher's daily routine from waking up and taking the bus to school, to teaching three classes throughout the day using a SMARTboard and engaging students.
2) The teacher discusses three principles of teaching - engaging students' preconceptions, building conceptual frameworks, and promoting metacognition. In each class, the teacher employs techniques like "Watch It, Do It, Teach It" to reveal students' thinking and build understanding.
3) At the end of the day, the teacher reflects on teaching experiences and reads about educational topics online before ending the day with dinner and bedtime.
A variety of concrete student centred learning experiences are shared that leverage the power of the world wide web and focus teachers instructional design through lenses that are student centred, knowledge centred, assessment centred, and community centred.

This document discusses leveraging technology to engage students in learning. It emphasizes that the goal is not just integrating technology for its own sake or "fixing" curriculum, but seeing opportunities with a fresh perspective and "lighting up learners". True engagement involves immersion, deeper understanding, better retention and successful application of knowledge. The document explores what motivates and engages learners through authentic tasks, choice, collaboration and allowing some risk-taking. While technology is not the goal, it can enhance engagement by allowing global collaboration and accessing current information.

In a world where knowledge is more a verb than a noun how do we foster deep learning in our students? Good questions cause thinking. Unfortunately, many of the questions regularly asked in classrooms focus on knowledge as a noun. This presentation will explore inquiry as a pedagogical stance and the effective use of thinking and learning tools in the classroom. We will work together to model teaching practices that lead to students co-constructing a networked (real world) rather than hierarchical (artificial) understanding of their world regardless of grade level or discipline.
Participants will leave this workshop with a toolkit of research based questioning and thinking strategies they can begin using with their students tomorrow.
The Networked Administrator: Leading and Learning with Social MediaLyn Hilt
For Simple K-12 Webinar
"Sometimes who you know is as important as what you know. Having a wide range of professional connections not only broadens your reach, it can actually help you learn, grow, and become more efficient. This session explores the role of the networked administrator, who, as the school's lead learner, recognizes the value and use of social media to develop professional connections, build relationships and capacity, help create organizational efficiency, and bring innovative learning experiences to students and staff.
This session is designed for administrators, teachers, educators... anyone interested in learning more about the power of connected leading and learning! "

The document discusses how learning is becoming more networked and less dependent on traditional schools. It argues that the smartest person is no longer an individual, but the collective group or "room". Learning is now social and connected between people around the world. New models of learning leverage the internet to make learning immersive, mobile, collaborative and allow learners to learn from experts anywhere through tools like video chat. The future of learning will be participatory with students learning from each other through sharing ideas online.
Leveraging the Potential of Social Media for School Public RelationsWesley Fryer
Social media technologies offer excellent opportunities for school public relations officials as well as teachers, administrators, librarians and others to communicate with parents and other community constituents. In this session we'll explore how educators and students are using Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, as well as a variety of wiki and blog platforms to "tell their story" about the wonderful learning experiences and opportunities available in their schools. We'll address legal issues including confidentiality, CIPA, FERPA, and liability concerns, as well as practical issues like how to moderate community comments as well as student-created text and media postings. School officials should proactively embrace opportunities to use social media technologies in smart and effective ways to safely communicate with constituents on the global stage which is the Internet.* This session will showcase current examples of educational leaders who are doing this successfully, as well as share ideas for how school leaders can get started.
The document discusses three principles for using web 2.0 tools in pedagogy:
1) Engage students' preconceptions by understanding errors come from previous learning.
2) Use new concepts and applications to build conceptual frameworks through a knowledge network.
3) Facilitate learning through metacognitive strategies like mind maps, publishing student work, and having students create content that educates others.
What Do We Keep and What Do We Throw AwayDean Shareski

It includes the name of the organizer, Dean Shareski, and links to his website, blog, and social media profiles. A number of quotes and images are included on topics related to education such as embracing change, social learning, and the roles of teachers and learners. The document suggests considering which current roles to eliminate and moving from control to freedom. It also addresses issues like abundance versus scarcity of information and attention.
Behind Their Eyes - making thinking visible is not enough
Walk into any classroom and watch the breakneck pace at which teachers are working hard to help students learn. Mind you, if we don’t uncover what students are thinking while learning, they may be running down the wrong path. OK, so we need ways to make student thinking visible. Seeing their thinking is important, but we also need to create the time and space for teachers to absorb, reflect, and act on what their students thinking reveals. This workshop shares strategies both for making student thinking visible and for creating time and space for teachers to meaningfully act on what they learn about what’s going on behind their eyes.
“If you really want to understand something, try changing it.” - Kurt Lewin
As the Director of Learning for a school division made up of 18 schools, my job is to help lead the largest change initiative ever undertaken in our school community. One of the most important, difficult, messy things any school leader does is lead change. While we can learn from the change leadership of others, copying their work most often leads to failure. Success is more likely to come from adapting others work to our own context. In this workshop I share the journey we’ve undertaken collectively in our schools; how we developed a shared vision, cultivated collaborative cultures, maintained a focus on deep learning, and wrestle with the nuances of accountability. Informed by the latest research on change management in education, we also model strategies for fostering deep learning conversations in your schools. We’ll engage in some deeper learning conversations together and take back a wealth of ideas you can adapt to your own context. Developing collaborative cultures is careful and precise work that has profound impact when carried out well. So how do you do that? Come, let’s learn together. Good people are important, but good cultures are moreso.
The document is a presentation about digital citizenship given by Darren Kuropatwa at the Building Learning Communities Conference in Boston, MA in July 2017. It discusses the importance of digital citizenship and responding to adversity with persistent kindness. It provides examples of digital citizenship issues and scenarios for discussion. It encourages participants to think about their own digital footprint and how to be good digital citizens.
Presented at the Riding the Wave Conference in Gimli, Manitoba. May 2017.
In two words, you remember the whole story: glass slipper, sour grapes, cold porridge. You remember more than facts, you recall relationships & deeper connections between characters. Some of the powerful ways we leverage digital for deeper learning includes challenging sources of information (fake news), exploring bias (developing empathy through multiple perspectives), and creating powerful feedback loops that foster deeper learning.
Powerful narratives, in a word or two, bring to mind a wealth of ideas & relationships; more than just facts. How can we find stories that make our teaching sticky and help kids find, and more importantly tell, stories that make learning stick? This workshop will equip teachers with the skills & knowledge to foster deeper learning across the curriculum by intentionally leveraging digital tools to foster deeper learning.
Tales of Learning and the Gifts of Footprints v4.2Darren Kuropatwa
This document appears to be a presentation about digital learning and storytelling. It discusses shifting from compliance to care, private to public learning, and consumer to participatory models. It addresses what digital storytellers look like and principles of learning including starting where students are, learning being done by and for students, students talking about learning, having learning targets, and feedback. It encourages generosity, sharing tales of learning, and giving the gifts of footprints.
Presented at the Richmond District Conference, Feb 2017.

Slides to support a master class on making student thinking visible through practical hands-on activities and structured around Dylan Wiliam's work on formative assessment and active learning. Held at the BYTE Conference 2017 in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba.
A group of educators from the BYTE Conference 2017 (Build Your Teaching Experience) share their ideas about learning as a series of visual metaphors they found on their phones.
The document discusses storytelling and how it can be used as a tool for learning. It suggests that storytelling allows students to think in metaphors and learn through stories. It provides examples of how digital tools like QR codes and apps can be used to incorporate storytelling into the classroom. It also outlines some rules of thumb for using storytelling, such as personalizing tasks to students' experiences, collaborating on group projects, and getting feedback from both inside and outside the classroom.
This document contains multiple sections on topics related to technology and its impact on society, including how the internet allows information to be easily shared but also persist indefinitely, issues around online privacy and bullying, and ways for parents to support their children's safe and responsible internet use. The document advocates for empowering youth and promoting kindness both online and off.
