Re Defining The Learning Architecture In Your School Tony Carrucantcarrucan
This presentation provides information on how schools can implement cloud computing to extend their learning architecture and optimise the use of social networks.
Like the variety of Web 2.0 applications, theories of learning and instructional models are also primarily content independent. So it is left up to the teacher educator to match learner characteristics, content, pedagogy and technologies. This presentation will concentrate on the use of Web 2.0 technologies in contemporary constructivist and cognitivist learning environments. We will present the characteristics of Web 2.0 tools to support teaching and learning, including low threshold applications, a variety of tools and models, as well as access to tools and knowledge. Finally, we will identify the limitations and challenges that exist with using these tools, such as immature applications, longevity of applications, number of applications, unconsolidated services and security and ethics.
Noone can deny the importance of continuing professional development for ELT instructors.It helps teachers to stay up to date with the new methods and procedures of teaching and learning which leads to the improvement of their classes output.Learning was and is still always linked to travel but the only difference between past teachers and actual ones, seeking professional development, is that in the past educators take long real journeys .However , traveling for knowledge in the modern era can also be virtual with same or better results in various aspects.

Darren Peacock, Stuart Tait and Corey Timpson, Reaching School-based users wi...museums and the web
School-based users, both students and educators, have always been a primary target audience for museum on-line content. Museums and other cultural organisations have made significant investments in developing and disseminating content on-line to reach and engage these users. Yet despite the obvious logic of this connection, in practice it has proven difficult to build effective permanent bridges between the wealth of museum digital content and the classroom environment. While many individual institutions host outstanding educational content on their individual Web sites, this material may remain inaccessible or under utilised in a classroom environment due to technology and security constraints, or simply through lack of awareness or discoverability. We are yet to develop effective and sustainable supply chains of museum digital content from multiple institutions for use in classroom environments. In Australia and Canada two new national approaches to solving the supply chain problem have been developed by two agencies working with museum organisations to facilitate the flow of content into classroom environments. This paper examines the imperatives driving these initiatives and the lessons learned in creating an integrated national approach to developing digital supply chains for school-based users of museum content.

Editor's Notes
Young people are learning in different ways from the way we learnt.Lots of names for young learners…e.g. “Google generation” is anyone born after 1984 (now 26).Marc Prensky coined the most famous name: “digital native”...
This slide is 3 years old.I used to ask my audience if they recognised these logos – most didn’t.This is the environment that young people inhabit.They are increasingly using these services for learning…
He contrasted the “digital native” (young learners) with “digital immigrants” (you and me).Pretty much opposites in most regards.e.g. libraries are not widely used and having re-invent themselves.
It’s been argued that the way students really learn and the way we imagine they learn are not the same.We think that they learn the way we did – through a teacher.But there is evidence that they learn through their social networks and wikipedia and instant messaging and e-mail and Google.This is called the “hidden curriculum”.
One of these qualifications is Internet Safety… a single credit unit (40 hours) designed for young people.Developed 3 years ago in consultation with Microsoft, BT and child protection agencies, such as CEOP.It was also SQA’s first “paperless” qualification, designed from the outset as an online award.
These are the learning outcomes… but it is more informative to look at the word cloud…
I tipped the teaching material into Wordle and this is what came out…The bigger the word is more often is appears in the material.These are the main themes… protecting your PC, know the law, know how to be careful online, etc.
The assessment is very straight forward.2 assessment – an online test and a diary of activity… hopefully a blog.An e-test for knowledge and the blog for practical activity.Available on SOLAR, SQA’s online testing system.
Some examples of how the Internet Safety unit is used in practice.
This is our second online protection qualification.Very pleased to have developed it in partnership with CEOP, who have been fantastic to work with.We have developed the assessments together.It’s a Professional Development Award… second year degree level.It’s not for kids… its for adults who deal with children, such as police officers and social workers.Pilot commences next month (April).
Here are the contents.2 units – both mandatory.Unit 1 relates directly to CEOP’s Ambassador programme – effectively assesses that.Unit 2 is Reflective Practice and relates to how the people who do the Ambassador course relate that to their professional practice.It is assessed through an online test and a blog.
This is how you gain the PDA.Only available to people who complete CEOP’s Ambassador programme.Unit 1 effectively assesses the Ambassador course.Unit 2 provides the PDA.
Child protection will become more important!Kids will use the Internet more.Blended learning will become standard.We can’t keep blocking websites. Better to educate than eliminate.I would like to see the Internet Safety become a mandatory element in every secondary school.And the PDA become a mandatory part of every teacher’s CPD.
