This is a good list but I can see how it can scare traditional teachers.

  reflections on tech in the classroom

  tags: education, technology, learning

  • Tech-infused learning certainly involves the effective and appropriate use of information (contemporary literacy), which includes accessing, working, expressing knowledge — through the networks, digitally, compellingly, and with consideration of others. But what do you look for to see that?  What does the learning experience look like?
  • 1. You see learning that is fueled by questions.
  • 2. Students are engaged in a way that provokes conversation.
  • 3. The learning situation is responsive to the learner’s actions — the assignment talks back, so to speak.
  • 4. The learning experience compels a personal investment by the learner and contributes to the learner’s identity
  • 5. The learning results from significant opportunities to safely make mistakes.
