Innovative Technologies and Student Success
This document discusses how technology is changing the ways students interact, consume information, and learn. It notes that while technology is ubiquitous, it does not necessarily lead to digital or information literacy. It argues that educators need to help students take control of technology and be critical consumers of information. The document promotes using participatory and student-centered and technologies in teaching to engage students and help them develop important literacy skills for a digital world.

A participatory culture is also one in which members believe their contributions matter, and feel some degree of social connection with one another (at the least they care what other people think about what they have created)â http://digitallearning.macfound.org/atf/cf/%7B7E45C7E0-A3E0-4B89-AC9C-E807E1B0AE4E%7D/JENKINS_WHITE_PAPER.PDF

- #14 The REALITY? The way that we, as consumers, interact with the world is the SAME way that students interact with information and educationRepeatSo, if the way we interact is changing, way we consume is changing then the way we âŚ.
- #15Â How we learn is changing too. And the educations response to that has to be
- #18Â This presentation will highlight some ways, hows and what that technology can affect.Let me explain- Begin with who. Who are the new consumers (this includes most of us)
- #19Â Rewarded in a digital environment â shallow superficial learning. Jack of all, master of none. That is the self perception of most of us but studies show that because most of this superficial learning comes from self directed exploration- we know EVEN LESS THEN WE THINK WE DO.No one is teaching us the core social media programs we need, the best privacy practices, the best study habits, the best newspapers to read, there is no western canon of modern life. Where do you start and when do you stop? Deep attention vs. Hyper attention. Humming bird vs woodpecker (lets remove the judgment from this, it is what it is)Multi tasking- again, our brains havenât evolutionarily caught up with the technology. We think we are MT but we arenât. we either arenât really multi tasking, we are just hummingbird-ing. Or we are multi tasking and doing it all very poorly.
- #20Â In addition they might be studying, reading, talking to friends, eating, etc.
- #21Â Most of us are self taught, because there is NO ONE teaching us how navigate, learn apps, stay in touch and make sound decisions about where to invest our time So who becomes the decider?Self select via peer group or the Market makes decisions for them- just like the we do when we make consumer decisions. Direct implications for student learning outcomes- recognize and explain complex social institutions and culturesThink critically? Separate self and society? Analyze communication? Engage in research? This leads to the issue of consumerization of information (hello, Google Iâm talking to you). http://www.columbiastate.edu/File/TBR%20learning%20outcomes%20for%20Psychology.pdf
- #26Â This is one essential way the library can be relevant and directly effect student learning outcomes, and create lifelong learnersThis of course means we need to teach using effective technologies that make sense, not that are just the next cool thing
- #27Â Skills and principles- what we just talked about â informing students about the consumerization of information, that itâs a commodity bought and sold and how to be Socratic learners, informed citizens.The last two things I am going to touch on is the inspiration and the technology.

We are the center of their universe, the mighty oz (in front of the curtain) they just donât know it. TELL THEM.

- #36Â Henry Jenkins, MIT, et all, macArthur foundation white paperEducators must work together to ensure that every American young person has access to the skills and experiences needed to become a full participant, can articulate their understanding of how media shapes perceptions, and has been socialized into the emerging ethical standards thatshould shape their practices as media makers and participants in online communities.
- #37Â memberships, formal and informal, in online communities centered around various forms of media, such as Friendster, Facebook, message boards, metagaming, game clans, or MySpace). producing new creative forms, such as digital sampling, skinning and modding, fan videomaking, fan fiction writing, zines, mash-ups).working together in teams, formal and informal, to complete tasks and develop new knowledge (such as through Wikipedia, alternative reality gaming, spoiling).Shaping the flow of media (such as podcasting, blogging).
- #38Â Addressing education through participatory culture is an opportunities for educators to address these pitfalls (and by the way directly address learning outcomes)A growing body of scholarship suggests potential benefits of these forms of participatory culture, including opportunities for peer-to-peer learning, a changed attitude toward intellectual property, the diversification of cultural expression, the development of skills valued in the modern workplace, and a more empowered conception of citizenship. Access to this participatory culture functions as a new form of the hidden curriculum, shaping which youth will succeed and which will be left behind as they enter school and the workplace.Some have argued that children and youth acquire these key skills and competencies on their own by interacting with popular culture
