The Digital Narrative - Find your story

"There are numerous ways to introduce digital storytelling into a classroom.

Of course, writing and telling stories using digital media brings up a host of questions that relate to narrative and structure, how you approach a lesson and maneuver around technical problems. So we created a teacher handout (.doc file, 116kb) that covers many of these considerations. "

A Vision of Students Today (& What Teachers Must Do) | Britannica Blog

"In spring 2007 I invited the 200 students enrolled in the “small” version of my “Introduction to Cultural Anthropology” class to tell the world what they think of their education by helping me write a script for a video to be posted on YouTube. The result was the disheartening portrayal of disengagement you see below. The video was viewed over one million times in its first month and was the most blogged about video in the blogosphere for several weeks, eliciting thousands of comments. With rare exception, educators around the world expressed the sad sense of profound identification with the scene, sparking a wide-ranging debate about the roles and responsibilities of teachers, students, and technology in the classroom."

K12 Online Conference 2009 | Announcing K12 Online 2009 Presenters

"The 2009 conference promises to again provide more exemplary learning opportunities in the same spirit of collaboration and sharing! The learning will begin with a pre-conference keynote during the week of November 30, 2009. We again invite presenters to submit “teaser trailers” for their presentations in advance of the conference.

This year’s fantastic line up of keynote presenters will create an inviting and welcoming introduction in which the sharing of ideas among diverse learners working in diverse contexts continues. Our distinguished keynote speakers will not only extend the conversations, but also invite each of us to stretch and grow as they share their expertise and wisdom in their respective strands."

In this interview Ypulse discusses, among other things, how youth culture and lifestyles have changed; the evolving role of games in our lives; a wired classroom for third graders; and kids, social media, and privacy.

edtechpost - PLE Diagrams

A Collection of PLE diagrams
As preparation for a workshop I am giving this fall I thought it would be interesting to collect together all the diagrams of PLEs I could find, as a compare and contrast sort of exercise. If you have others, I'd love to know about them. You can log in with the guest account (edtechpost_guest, same password) or email them to me at edtechpost@gmail.com.

Flat Classrooms - What is a flat classroom?

What is a Flat Classroom?
The concept of a 'flat classroom' came originally from David Warlick (we think!). It is based on the constructivist principle of a multi-modal learning environment that is student-centered and a level playing field for teacher to student and student to teacher interaction.
