I spent the holidays (or part of them at least) thinking of simple metaphors and analogies that would help in conceptualizing the connections and inter-relatedness of content, pedagogy, and technology.

The Substitution Augmentation Modification Redefinition Model offers a method of seeing how computer technology might impact teaching and learning. It also shows a progression that adopters of educational technology often follow as they progress through teaching and learning with technology.

Some steps to consider when planning to incorporate online learning as an integrated part of students' learning.
-
My school is going through the process of adopting the Common Core, and there is a tremendous push to create student-driven classrooms using technology. In short, I am overwhelmed and fear that I am too old, too used to the way I have taught to make the change—although I am willing to learn.

Blended learning combines classroom learning with online learning, in which students can, in part, control the time, pace, and place of their learning. I advocate a teacher-designed blended learning model, in which teachers determine the combination that's right for them and their students.

This paper addresses the long-standing dilemma of ‘covering content’ and ‘teaching thinking’ that has concerned teachers of specialist discipline subjects. It aims to identify and examine the mix of theoretical and historical factors that have contributed to this dilemma. In the process, a framework for both understanding the dilemma and developing a pedagogy for dealing with it at the level of classroom practice is proposed.

it comes from students being very comfortable using the Microsoft Office skills they learned in middle school, and not seeing the need to upgrade any of their skills because breaking out of that MS comfort zone and learning new things can be very difficult. Some of it comes from the fact that students come home and struggle a bit learning a web tool, which turns into complaints to parents about having to learn to use the technology. And a little of it comes from the fact that, even though the web tools used in my classroom have been around for about a decade, this is the first time my 9th and 10th grade students have encountered them; it's only natural, then, that what's new to students is going to get the most air time in conversations at home.
But mainly this idea that I teach technology over science comes from the fact that I did have to take some class time to have them learn the basics of all the web tools we used throughout the year. Most of my students were very uncomfortable learning new things (I think it's because they had a fixed mindset about their abilities, but I could be wrong), so I had to give them some time to get comfortable with the new technology, and help them come to the realization that the netbook would not explode if they hit the wrong button, and that these days it's not often you lose all your work by pressing the wrong key or clicking the wrong button. But mainly I had to give them some time to become familiar with the process of learning something new on their own, something non-content related so the pressure would be off their grades and on the process of learning.
