And when the thrill is gone?

Technology Integration Is Not:• Taking students to the computer lab once a

week for 40 minutes.• Using the computer as an electronic

worksheet.• Using the computer as a reward station for

students who are finished with their other assignments.

Technology Integration Is Not:

• Accelerated Reader, Math Blaster, WebAchiever.

• Every student typing one PowerPoint a year, no matter what!

•What the teacher is doing with the technology.

We must prepare learners for their future, not for our past.

-- David Thornburg

• A vision of K-12 Students

Joke• Rip Van Winkle awakens in the 21st century after a

hundred-year snooze and is, of course, utterly bewildered by what he sees. Men and women dash about, talking to small metal devices pinned to their ears. Young people sit at home on sofas, moving miniature athletes around on electronic screens. Older folk defy death and disability with metronomes in their chests and with hips made of metal and plastic. Airports, hospitals, shopping malls – every place Rip goes just baffles him. But when he finally walks into a schoolroom, the old man knows exactly where he is. “This is a school,” he declares. “We used to have these back in 1906. Only now the blackboards are green (Miranda, et al, 2006, 1).

21st Century Skills• Personal and social responsibility• Planning, critical thinking, reasoning,

and creativity• Strong communication skills• Cross-cultural understanding• Visualizing and decision-making• Knowing how & when to use

technology

Steps to Integration• Begin with the end in mind. – How will learning be different? – How will teaching be different?

• Model integration• Encourage integration• Challenge integration• Encourage YOUR teachers to learn!!

Feel free to modify and share to meet your needs.

• Click on CAMT 2010 (far right side bar)• Click on Motivational Session

The importance of visuals/images

• Text (books) = sequential• Images = non-sequential• Images, visuals help better learning and

connecting• Images & visuals in technology EVERYWHERE

Brain Rule # 10:

Vision trumps all other senses.

Images are processed simultaneously.

If I can visualize it,

I own it.

Visualize having hot dogs at the beach…

Visualize & Imagine…

Is this what you visualized?

Images go to long-term memory

Did you ever see something in a split secondthat will remain with you forever?

We are drawn to images

Not words:

• Adorable,

• Cute,• Cuddly,• Soft

Not text

•Lonely,•Destitute,•Homeless,•Abandoned

Even text that

is colorful and

bright.

• Any questions so far????

NEXT, Explore & start “doing” something rather than

talking about it doing something…..

UBD

• Understanding By Design– 3 Stageshttp://www.grantwiggins.org/ubd/ubd.lasso

MY Overview…..– Start with the End in Mind – Plan GOOD questions for the day/lesson (arguable,

adult life like) Get them thinking– Big Idea answers , “Why?”– Real Life Application– Rubric Assessments

3 Stages of UBD

1. Identify Desired Results- Content, TEKS, TAKS- Essential Questions – Arguable not recall, real life, philosophic ,

uncover not cover- KEY: BIG IDEAS – real life, depth

2. Determine acceptable evidence- Self assess, Rubrics, GRASPS (goal, role, audience, situation, performance, standards)

3. Plan learning experiences & instruction- 5 E Model (- Organize by WHERE (Why or Where, Hooked, Equip/Explore, Rethink/rehearse/refine/revise, Evaluate)

Your turnCreate an effective lesson plan OR project

1. What TEKS do you want to cover? - week, semester, 6 weeks, year

2. Think of a real life problem that use those TEKS

3. How will you use technology to gather, research, present, organize, share, etc. in solving this problem
