20. Class One:Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning ISTE Standard Facilitate and inspire student learning and creativity Teachers use their knowledge of subject matter, teaching and learning, and technology to facilitate experiences that advance student learning, creativity, and innovation in both face-to-face and virtual environments. • Promote, support, and model creative and innovative thinking and inventiveness • Engage students in exploring real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources • Promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students’ conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes • Model collaborative knowledge construction by engaging in learning with students, colleagues, and others in face-to-face and virtual environments

21. Talk Time: One question per group • What do you do in your classroom presently to promote, support, and model creative and innovative thinking and inventiveness? • What do you do that engages students in exploring real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources? • What do you do that promotes student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students’ conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes? • What do you do that models collaborative knowledge construction by engaging in learning with students, colleagues, and others in face-to-face and virtual environments?

22. Three Rules to spark learning

23. Social Constructivist Theory • Kids learn by doing, and they learn best by doing things with others and in similar ways to what society is doing (real-world and collaborative) • Constructivist Learning (4:45) • Talk time: How does this look in the classroom?

24. Schema • We connect each bit of learning to what we already know, like a web. This is why differentiation is so important, because not all learners have the same connection points on the web or "anchors" for attachment of new info, that’s why most info is left unconnected in a one-size-fits-all classroom... • Schema Theory Example (2:21) • Talk Time- how do you do this in your classroom?

25. SAMR Model • Toolbox- Links to SAMR Model • Starbucks • Talk- Discuss parts of the SAMR Model in groups • SAMR: A Brief Introduction • Technology is Learning • SAMR Prezi • Schrock Blooms and SAMR • SAMR PPT • Digital Strategies- how do we deepen and strengthen these instructional strategies • SAMR Google Doc

27. How do we assess this? Assessing Learning

28. Talk Time: • How will you assess this kind of learning? • Look at website with rubrics- give input in 10 min of how you will assess • How do you give structure to the classroom?

29. Podcasting • What is a Podcast? An audio blog • Why we do not want to tell you the site to use

30. Kathy Schrock- Podcasting Podcasting in the Classroom Educational podcastingEducational podcasting guidePodcasting in educationUsing iPods in the early childhood classroom Podcasting in and out of the classroom Creating podcasts with your students Benefits of podcasting in the classroom Sample Podcast: Target Sample Podcast: Podcasts

31. Podcasting sites • NPR Podcasts for Education • LabOut Loud- Science Podcasts • 50 Educational Podcasts • iTunes Podcast Ideas • Use a mobile device to have young students make a podcast of their reading or writing - Have them listen to themselves and critique their reading or writing

32. How to integrate? • Students interview relatives about their life histories, and then combine the audio interview with family photos in a video project. • Students write a radio drama based on a historical event and record their show (complete with commercials). • Students learn about a different country by interviewing a recent traveler. They record the interview and then create a digital travel album. • Students create a faux advertising campaign to convince immigrants to settle the new American colonies. • Students use audio recording to interview sources for articles for a class newspaper. • Students write and record short stories and add music and sound effects. • Teacher records a tutorial that students listen to on their own • Present student writing through a class radio drama or a poetry slam. • Teacher records and broadcasts group discussions. • Teachers might record students reading a story as a fluency assessment, or as a foreign language pronunciation activity. • On a field trip, students use an iPod with a voice recorder to take notes and a digital camera to take photos. They then create a guided tour in iMovie.

33. Make a Podcast • Lets look at site: http://edtechteacher.org/apps/audio/ • Vocaroo: http://vocaroo.com/ • Record MP3- http://www.recordmp3.org/ • Send link to a partner in the class • Can put on website • Can use phone, iPad, any device- even a recorder if needed

34. Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning • Podcasts • Assignment: Teacher does one, integrate the program into a lesson with students doing, assess program- reflect on lesson (same pattern in each class) • Digital Presence • Assignment: Make a web presence- can be as simple as Edmodo, integrate blogging into a lesson, assess student work on blog- reflect on lesson
