  3. Rebecca Swain ACEC 2010 Digital Tools: Thinking First • How can technology be used to help students to engage with content, create, and collaborate at EVERY curriculum level? • I get beyond the bells and whistles by questioning: What learning goals underpin our use of technology in the classroom? • Not all Web 2.0 tools are the same. Some have wonderfully intuitive systems, and others are messy. Some have clear and engaging help videos and others require that you look elsewhere for set-up notes. Most are free for educators so you can pick and choose!

  4. Students as readers; • Students as collaborators; • Students as creators; Rebecca Swain ACEC 2010 What roles do students play?

  5. How you can use technology to encourage, generate thinking and discussion: • AV clips @ YouTube, ASOor TED; • Podcasts (egLingua Franca or other Radio National etc); • Word clouds @ Wordle; • How students can use technology to show you what they know (let them publish it...): • Make it visual @ Freemind or Bubble.us; • Symbols and visual interpretations @ Animoto; Rebecca Swain ACEC 2010 Students as Readers

  6. Work in teams on shared resources & understanding: • Discussion Boards @ Google Groups; • Blogging Projects @ Wordpress; • Web Navigation @ Delicious; • Online folios @Wikispaces; • Social Networks @ Ning; Rebecca Swain ACEC 2010 Students as Collaborators

  7. Build in flexibility so that learners can play to their strengths... A case study from the Year 11 VCE Writing Folio • Photography; • Music; • Podcasting; • Blogging; Rebecca Swain ACEC 2010 Students as Creators

  8. Rebecca Swain ACEC 2010 Too much choice?

  9. Rebecca Swain ACEC 2010 A Focus on Planning For every task I introduce to the classroom, I consider the following: • What am I trying to achieve? • Engagement, collaboration, independent achievement, creativity, a deeper understanding or something else? • What tools might I use? • What do I already know that can help me get there? • What have I seen or heard about that might provide the solution? • What do my students use in their own time? • Will I use technology or not? • How will I use them? • Will this be an in-class or at-home task (or both)? • Will it be collaborative or individual?
