This document discusses the need for changes in education to better prepare students for the future. It notes that the world, students, and schools have all shifted significantly since the past. New literacies and skills are needed, like being multiliterate, active content creators, and able to collaborate globally. Learning is becoming more connected and less confined to the classroom. Teachers are encouraged to shift from a teaching focus to a learning focus and view themselves as curriculum designers. Technology should be used innovatively to transform learning rather than just be added on or used mechanically.
A revolution in technology has transformed the way we can find each other, interact and collaborate. This wave of tech helps us to create knowledge as connected learners and to develop the social fabric, capacity, and connectedness found in communities of practice and learning networks. Join Sheryl in this interactive presentation as she explores the question- What should professional learning look like in the 21st Century?

Join Sheryl in this interactive presentation as she explores the question- What should professional learning look like in the 21st Century?
A passionate student is a learning student. As the people of the world are becoming increasingly connected, the nature, use, ownership, and purpose of knowledge are changing in profound ways. Our goal as educators is to leverage these connections and changes as powerful means to improve teaching and learning in our schools. Come join in a discussion of why we should all have a sense of urgency for shifting classroom practice toward more engaging approaches that unleash the passion that lies within each student.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The World is Changing…
4. Time Travel
Lewis Perelman, author of School's Out
(1992). Perelman argues that schools are out
of sync with technological change:
...the technological gap between the school
environment and the "real world" is growing
so wide, so fast that the classroom
experience is on the way to becoming not
merely unproductive but increasingly
irrelevant to normal human existence (p.215).
5. Trend 1 – Social and intellectual capital are the new
economic values in the world economy.
This new economy will be held together and advanced
through the building of relationships. Unleashing and
connecting the collective knowledge, ideas, and experiences
of people creates and heightens value.

12. Shift in Learning – The Possibilities
Rethinking teaching and learning…
1. Multiliterate
2. Changing Demographic
3. Active Content Creators
4. Global Collaboration and
Communication
We are in the midst of seeing education
transform from a book-based, linear system
with a focus on individual achievement to an
web-based, divergent system with a focus on
community building.
13. Shifting From Shifting To
A teaching focus A learning focus
School improvement
as an option
School improvement
as a requirement
Mandated
accountability
Mutual accountability
14.
15. Play — the capacity to experiment with one’s surroundings as a form of
problem-solving
Performance — the ability to adopt alternative identities for the purpose of
improvisation and discovery
Simulation — the ability to interpret and construct dynamic models of real-
world processes
Appropriation — the ability to meaningfully sample and remix media
content
Multitasking — the ability to scan one’s environment and shift focus as
needed to salient details.
Distributed Cognition — the ability to interact meaningfully with tools that
expand mental capacities
.
16. Collective Intelligence — the ability to pool knowledge and compare
notes with others toward a common goal
Judgment — the ability to evaluate the reliability and credibility of different
information sources
Transmedia Navigation — the ability to follow the flow of stories and
information across multiple modalities
Networking — the ability to search for, synthesize, and disseminate
information
Negotiation — the ability to travel across diverse communities, discerning

17. Will the future of education include broad-
based, global reflection and inquiry?
Will your current level of new media literacy
skills allow you to take part in leading learning
through these mediums? Does it matter?
18. The NCTE Definition of 21st Century Literacy
Develop proficiency with the tools of technology
Build relationships with others to pose and solve problems
collaboratively and cross-culturally
Design and share information for global communities to meet a
variety of purposes
Manage, analyze and synthesize multiple streams of
simultaneous information
Create, critique, analyze, and evaluate multi-media texts
Attend to the ethical responsibilities required by these complex
environments
19. "The world is moving at a tremendous rate.
Going no one knows where. We must
prepare our children, not for the world of the
past. Not for our world. But for their world.
The world of the future."
John Dewey
Dewey's thoughts have laid the foundation for inquiry driven
approaches.
Dewey's description of the four primary interests of the child
are still appropriate starting points:
1. the child's instinctive desire to find things out
2. in conversation, the propensity children have to
communicate
3. in construction, their delight in making things
4. in their gifts of artistic expression.
20. Students are Individuals
1. Children are persons and should be treated as
individuals as they are introduced to the variety and
richness of the world in which they live.
2. Children are not something to be molded and pruned.
Their value is in who they are – not who they will
become. They simply need to grow in knowledge.
3. Think of the self-directed learning a child does from birth
to three– most of it without language. As they mature
they are even more capable of being self-directed
learners.
.
21. Have we
replaced ―doing‖ with
―mastering skills‖?
Have we subordinated
our student’s initiative
to a schedule we
designed according to
pragmatic factors
other than their
creative needs?
We require them to try and
become interested in hours
of listening to talking and there
is little time for those students to
express themselves.
22. Three Rules
of Passion-based Teaching
• Move them from extrinsic
motivation to intrinsic
motivation
• Help them learn self-
government and other-
mindedness
• Shift your curriculum to
include service learning
outcomes that address
social justice issues
1. Authentic task
2. Student Ownership
3. Connected Learning

23. Focuson Possibilities
–Appreciate ―What is‖
–Imagine ―What Might Be‖
–Determine ―What Should Be‖
–Create ―What Will Be‖
Blossom Kids
ClassicProblem Solving Approach
– Identify problem
– Conduct root cause analysis
– Brainstorm solutions and analyze
– Develop action plans/interventions
Most families, schools,
organizations function
on an unwritten rule…
–Let’sfix what’s
wrong and let the
strengthstake care
of themselves
Speak life life to your
students and teachers…
–When you focus on
strengths- weaknesses
become irrelevant
24.
25. Strengths Awareness Confidence Self-Efficacy
Motivation to excel Engagement
Apply strengths to areas needing improvement
Greater likelihood of success
26. How to Blossom Someone with
Expectation – Building Self-Esteem
1. Examine (pay close
attention)
2. Expose (what they did
specifically)
3. Emotion (describe how
it makes you feel)
4. Expect (blossom them
by telling them what
this makes you expect
in the future)
5. Endear (through
appropriate touch)
27. How do you do it?-- TPCK and Understanding by Design
There is a new curriculum design model that helps us think about how to
make assessment part of learning. Assessment before , during, and after
instruction.
Teacher and Students as Co-Curriculum
Designers1. What do you want to
know and be able to
do at the end of this
activity, project, or
lesson?
2. What evidence will
you collect to prove
mastery? (What will
you create or do)
3. What is the best way
to learn what you
want to learn?
4. How are you making
your learning
transparent?
(connected learning)
30. Share
Cooperate
Collaborate
Collective Action
According to Clay Shirky, there are four steps on a ladder to mastering the
connected world: sharing, cooperating, collaborating, and collective
action.
From his book- “Here Comes Everybody”
31. Connected Learner Scale
This work is at which level(s) of the connected learner scale?
Explain.
Share (Publish & Participate) –
Connect (Comment and
Cooperate) –
Remixing (building on the
ideas of others) –
Collaborate (Co-construction of
knowledge and meaning) –
Collective Action (Social Justice, Activism, Service
Learning) –
32. Why TPACK?
• Learning how to use technology is much
different than knowing what to do with it for
instructional purposes
• Redesigning instruction requires an
understanding of how knowledge about content,
pedagogy, and technology overlap to inform
your choices for curriculum and instruction
33. Consider how your
pedagogical approaches
might be framed to
effectively integrate
technology into content-
area instruction?
What new knowledge
might you need?
Throughout the week
(and back in your classroom)…
34. • Content focus: What content does this lesson focus on?
• Pedagogical focus: What pedagogical practices are
employed in this lesson?
• Technology used: What technologies are used?
• PCK: Do these pedagogical practices make concepts
clearer and/or foster deeper learning?
• TCK: Does the use of technology help represent the
content in diverse ways or maximize opportunities to
transform the content in ways that make sense to the
learner?
• TPK: Do the pedagogical practices maximize the use of
existing technologies for teaching and evaluating
learning?
• TPCK:How might things need to change if one aspect of
the lesson were to be different or not available?
TPACK Guidelines
35.
36. What do we need to unlearn?
Example:
* I need to unlearn that classrooms are physical spaces.
* I need to unlearn that learning is an event with a start and stop time to a lesson.
The Empire Strikes Back:
LUKE: Master, moving stones around is one thing. This is totally
different.
YODA: No! No different! Only different in your mind. You must unlearn
what you have learned.

How are teachers using technology in their
instruction?

Education Study
38. Increased technology use does not lead to student
learning. Rather, effectiveness of technology use
depended on teaching approaches used in conjunction
with the technology.
How you integrate matters- not just the technology alone.
It needs to be about the learning, not the technology. And
you need to choose the right tool for the task.
As long as we see content, technology and pedagogy as
separate- technology will always be just an add on.
Findings
39. See yourself as a curriculum designer–
owners of the curriculum you teach.
Honor creativity (yours first, then the
student’s)
Repurpose the technology! Go beyond
simple ―use‖ and ―integration‖ to
innovation!

41. What Changes?
Premise: Ubiquitous access to information
and eager connected mentors renders the
current system of education irrelevant, and
possibly obsolete.
Given that, what changes?

42. What will be our legacy…
• Bertelsmann Foundation Report: The Impact of Media and Technology in
Schools
– 2 Groups
– Content Area: Civil War
– One Group taught using Sage on the Stage methodology
– One Group taught using innovative applications of technology and
project-based instructional models
• End of the Study, both groups given identical teacher-constructed tests of
their knowledge of the Civil War.
Question: Which group did better?
44. However… One Year Later
– Students in the traditional group could recall almost nothing about
the historical content
– Students in the traditional group defined history as: ―the record
of the facts of the past‖
– Students in the digital group “displayed elaborate concepts and
ideas that they had extended to other areas of history”
– Students in the digital group defined history as:
―a process of interpreting the past from different perspectives‖
45. Real Question is this:
Are we willing to change- to risk change- to meet
the needs of the precious folks we serve?
Can you accept that Change (with a “big” C) is
sometimes a messy process and that learning new
things together is going to require some tolerance
for ambiguity.
