Gamification, Makerspaces, Minecraft: The Classroom of the Future is Now
What Does the Classroom of the Future Look Like?
Educators worldwide are looking at diverse models for the future classroom, ranging from the most innovative college and university spaces, to models of industry and dot-com startups. Perhaps more important than what the future learning space looks like, however, is what students are being asked to do to demonstrate their learning. In this talk, catch a glimpse of what a future classroom might look like, in both its curriculum and its physical space. Come explore the DIY “Maker” movement, and what it might mean for the future. Take a look at how companies like Google foster creativity and innovation, and see what kids’ visions of a “learning center” might look like. Finally, we’ll look at an original way to create stronger community in the classroom using the popular game Minecraft as a virtual learning environment.
Design an Innovative Learning Space

Project-based Learning Primer 12-06-10
The document discusses project-based learning and the use of technology tools to support it. It provides an agenda for a webinar on the topic, including defining project-based learning, discussing how it has evolved, and exploring how teachers can get started with it or advance their skills. Examples are given of effective project structures and how projects can be designed to drive student inquiry, collaboration, and real-world problem solving. Resources and groups for continuing learning are also listed.
Education 3.0
This document discusses how Web 2.0 tools can impact education. It notes that the Internet is becoming a platform for user-generated content and creativity. Students are now responsible for creating new online content. It suggests that information sharing and learning are changing, moving outside of formal education settings. If schools do not effectively integrate Web 2.0 tools, formal education may become irrelevant. The document advocates introducing tools like Google Apps, Wordle, and Diigo into classrooms to engage students and support collaboration, creativity, discussion, and access to information.
Collaboration Spruce Group
Collaboration provides benefits for students such as promoting deeper learning and critical thinking. For collaboration to be successful, a sense of community must exist where students feel comfortable sharing ideas. Key elements of an online community include trust, sharing goals and resources, and open communication. Instructors can facilitate successful collaboration by clearly setting expectations, modeling communication, and providing feedback and support to guide student groups. Regular evaluation also helps improve the collaborative process. When implemented effectively, collaboration allows students to learn from each other and achieve more than working individually.
The Spruc 8
Collaboration in online classrooms promotes deeper learning, creativity, and knowledge sharing. For collaboration to be successful, a sense of community must exist where students feel comfortable contributing. Instructors need to set clear expectations, model communication, provide feedback, and evaluate the collaborative process. Key elements of successful collaboration include trust, shared goals, innovation, and constructive discussion of ideas. Groups are more likely to succeed when members have interdependence, promote each other's success, and are accountable both individually and as a group.
ICT and the Key Competencies
The document discusses the link between effective learning, information and communication technologies (ICT), and the New Zealand curriculum. It argues that effective learning is learner-centered, activity-based, and experiential. ICTs enable these types of learner-centered approaches. The New Zealand curriculum framework also promotes learner-centered, active, and experiential learning approaches. The goal is to develop learners who are confident, connected, actively involved, and lifelong learners. Therefore, the link is that ICTs can support the learner-centered pedagogies advocated by the New Zealand curriculum to achieve effective learning.

The tasks aimed to address pedagogical problems like how to design the digital learning space, strengthen reading strategies, promote collaboration, help students make connections between concepts, and understand the role of individuals in a network. Both what worked well and what didn't work for each task based on student engagement and outcomes are described.

Project-Based Instruction and the Importance of Self-Directed Learning
This document discusses project-based instruction and the importance of self-directed learning. It addresses concerns with the current education system and argues that the purpose of school should be to prepare students for life after graduation. Project-based instruction is presented as a potential solution that engages students in authentic projects with real-world audiences. This helps students develop important skills like communication, collaboration, problem-solving and the ability to teach themselves. The document provides examples of project types and emphasizes that technology tools should empower student learning rather than replace teachers.

For age, it discusses how the film presents youth as problematic and the villain as old. For race, it only depicts Caucasian characters. For class, it shows Rapunzel as a princess and the thief Flynn as lower class initially. The document encourages using these critical lenses to deconstruct Disney films.

The rubric evaluates evidence files for debates based on four criteria: the quantity and quality of evidence provided; how well the evidence supports arguments; proper citations; and completion of the file. A score of 4 indicates the highest level of performance, including 30 or more well-cited pieces of evidence that are synthesized and interpreted to strongly support debate positions.

Media Savvy Kids Project Presentation RL2011
Children in the US are exposed to millions of advertisements daily through various media like TV, computers, and videos. About 1 in 4 children are negatively affected by advertisements directly targeting them. As kids spend more time in front of screens, sometimes over 4 hours a day, they are exposed to many unhealthy food, smoking, drug, and alcohol ads. While advertising to children under 8 is inappropriate as their minds can't understand selling intent, the advertising industry still spends over $15 billion annually targeting kids. Parents need to limit screen time and promote outdoor play to counter the effects of pervasive child advertising.
