17. Activity: 21st Century Web • Draw a slip of paper. It contains a website that is of interest to us as educators. • Spend 5 minutes with the site. • Be ready to report out to the group one idea of how it might be used in the classroom.

18. Things to ponder… “School should be less about preparation for life and more about life itself.” -John Dewey “To be playful and serious at the same time is possible, and it defines the ideal mental condition.” -John Dewey, How We Think

19. “As we move into the 21st century, our conception of literacy is evolving once again. The prevalence of technology in the everyday lives of the world’s citizens has grown at a rate that many would have found hard to imagine 25 or even 10 years ago. Policy makers, business leaders, and educators have come to expand their notion of a literate populace to include the skills and abilities that will enable citizens to function in an increasingly technological world.” -The International ICT Literacy Panel, Digital Transformation

20. A competitive, yet more interdependent world… The Facts • Policy: Recent policy and consequent accountability demands have too often had the unintended effect of reducing the important, and in many cases, the presence of such skills in the curriculum.

21. A competitive, yet more interdependent world… The Facts The Shift • Policy: Recent policy and consequent accountability demands have too often had the unintended effect of reducing the important, and in many cases, the presence of such skills in the curriculum. • We must restore to our schools the skills the future citizens will need to succeed in the worlds of work, higher education, and personal life.

22. Tools & Technology… The Facts • We now have new learning tools/techniques to help us promote the learning of these skills. The fact that these tools are so prevalent and essential in modern life is precisely why we must make sure students know how to use them effectively and appropriately. But technology for its own sake is insufficient.

23. Tools & Technology… The Facts The Shift • We now have new learning tools/techniques to help us promote the learning of these skills. The fact that these tools are so prevalent and essential in modern life is precisely why we must make sure students how to use them effectively and appropriately. But technology for its own sake is insufficient. • We must consider that technology needs to also connect students with the information, people, and real world contexts that will inspire and engage them throughout the curriculum.

24. Approaches and Pedagogy The Facts • We know more about the learning process. Current research supports the effectiveness of pedagogical approaches such as cooperative learning, teaching for transfer, project-based learning, and real world teaching contexts- as well as the importance through professional development, professional learning communities, mentoring, and the like.

25. Approaches and Pedagogy The Facts The Shift • We know more about the learning process. Current research supports the effectiveness of pedagogical approaches such as cooperative learning, teaching for transfer, project-based learning, and real world teaching contexts- as well as the importance through professional development, professional learning communities, mentoring, and the like. • We must reconsider these approaches, moving them once again to the forefront and reintegrate them into how we approach teaching to ensure the success of every student.
