Culturally Relevant Inspiration
A number of important resources supporting the design, development, implementation, and evaluation of culturally relevant instructional experiences are available online. Throughout this course, you have had many opportunities to view a number of such resources. This assignment encourages you to reflect on the key concepts presented in the course through the creation of a web-based tool that you can use in the future to support your teaching efforts. The goal is to showcase several model schools or programs representing what you have learned thus far regarding culturally relevant practices, creativity, and innovation. A plethora of options exists as you search for model schools or programs.

What will schools_look_like_in_2020_
The document discusses how schools may change by 2020 due to new digital technologies and learning environments. It argues that schools will need to adapt from standardized, teacher-directed models to personalized, self-directed, lifelong learning. Key shifts include learning becoming more mobile, networked, global, and interest-driven rather than confined to the classroom. Literacy will require skills like collaborating online, managing multiple information streams, and creating multimedia content. Schools will face challenges but can leverage technology to provide personalized learning instead of a one-size-fits-all approach. Educators will need preparation and experiences using technology to inspire innovative teaching practices.

What will schools_look_like_in_2020_
The document discusses how schools may change by 2020 due to new digital technologies and learning environments. It argues that schools will need to adapt from standardized, teacher-directed models to personalized, self-directed, lifelong learning. Key shifts include learning becoming more mobile, networked, global, and interest-driven rather than confined to the classroom. Literacy will require skills like collaborating online, managing multiple information streams, and creating multimedia content. Schools will face challenges but can leverage technology to provide personalized learning instead of a one-size-fits-all approach. Educators will need preparation and experiences using technology to inspire innovative teaching practices.

The document discusses how schools may change by 2020 due to new technologies and learning environments. It notes that learning will become more mobile, networked, global, collaborative, self-directed and personalized. This represents a huge challenge for traditional schools. Literacy will also change and require skills like developing technology proficiency, collaborating online, and managing multiple information streams. Schools will need to adapt learning resources and assessments to engage students in new ways. Educators will need new preparation focused on technology to improve learning. Infrastructure changes are also needed to provide all students and educators access to internet and devices for learning anywhere.
C-SAP e-learning forum: Open Educational Resources in global context
Open educational resources (OERs) are expected to reach mainstream use within a year according to a recent report. There are global approaches to searching for, using, and creating business models around OERs. Various tools are available for searching existing OERs across the web. Some universities and organizations are taking student-centered approaches or creating hybrid online/in-person programs using OERs. However, there are also issues around awareness, capacity, sustainability, and tensions that need to be addressed for broader global adoption of OERs.
