LIBE 477 - Final Project
- 1. Vision for the 21st Century Math, Technology and Documentation in Kindergarten By: Emily Klimchuk (Rodgers)
- 2. 21st Century Learners According to NCTE (2013), students must: ◦ “develop proficiency with the tools of technology” ◦ “create, critique, analyze and evaluate multimedia texts”
- 4. Will Richardson and the 21st Century Students must : ◦ ask questions ◦ work with others to find answers ◦ do real work for real audiences ◦ add to the storehouse of knowledge that the web is becoming (2012, 61)
- 5. DigitalLiteracy BC Digital Literacy Standards ◦ Illustrate and communicate original ideas using digital tools ◦ Engage in learning activities from multiple cultures through email and electronic means
- 6. Assessment and 21st Century “Shift our assessment of students’ mastery to ones that examine mastery in action” (Richardson, 2012, 88). “This isn’t about delivery. In a word, it’s about discovery” (Richardson, 2012, 60).
- 7. Assessment and 21st Century Changes in BC Curriculum: ◦ Shift from reporting to communicating student learning ◦ Support meaningful communication between teachers, parents and learners ◦ Move toward meaningful descriptions/collections and demonstrations of student learning
- 8. What are students already doing? Using iPad apps to practice math concepts (Hungry Fish, Candy Crush, etc.) Using manipulatives to explore, create, demonstrate and collaborate Sharing their learning with classmates through informal discussions or group meetings
- 9. As Will Richardson says….. Lets “get a little crazy and add some technology into the mix” (126).
- 10. Potential Apps Show Me Skitch Skioory Screen Chomp Explain Everything Draw and Tell Book Creator
- 12. Example - Skitch
- 13. Example – Show Me Show Me Example (embedded on web)
- 14. Benefits of using iPads “Being able to hear a student explain his or her thinking is a transformative event” (Burley) Reflection and rethinking (Burley) Visuals Opportunity to capture and share learning that would otherwise be cleaned up and put back in the bin
- 15. Beyond Our Classroom Walls Posting learning to blogs Parents and other students can comment Use data from another class at a different school to solve problems Engage in a collaborative problem activity by connecting to other classes anywhere in the world
- 16. Next Steps… Which app will you choose? Decide how students will use this app – Will iPads be available during centres? Who will be in charge of the ipads (students or teacher)? How will students share their learning? – Projector? Apple TV? Blog? Can you connect with another class?
