  1. You Got Art On My Computer! Rosalie Moore, Teacher & Technology Integration Specialist 2007 Laptop Institute, Mitchell, SD June 2007

  2. The Presenter I am currently a computer teacher at Douglas Middle School, Box Elder, SD, and have experience with students of all ages as a teacher and technologist. I have a masters degree in education technology and enjoy teaching and working with students and educators to find ways to best incorporate technology for learning. I have presented at several state and regional conferences, conducted district level staff development, and contributed to educational initiatives across the state.

  3. Learning • All learning integrates thinking and doing. Deeper levels of learning create increasing awareness that increasingly results in actions that become part of creating alternative futures. Senge, Peter and C. Otto Scharmer, Joseph Jaworski, Betty Sue Flowers. Presence. Currency, 2005. ISBN 0-385-51624-x.

  4. Student-centered learning Multi-sensory stimulation Multi-path progression Multimedia Collaborative work Information exchange Active, inquiry-based learning Critical thinking, informed decision making Proactive, planned Authentic, real-world context Paradigm (ISTE)

  5. Teaching • Contextual learning opportunities • beyond school walls • outside of school hours • Complex Tasks that result in Transferable skills • from school to work • from present to future

  6. Mentor Motivator Co-learner Teacher’s Role

  7. Technology Instruction • Effective and efficient operation of complex tools • Underlying knowledge and specific content required to put the tools to productive use • Skills to select, manage and maintain the tools they need for learning

  8. Captures real-life and allows students to directly relate to their learning Allows students to have ownership over what they learn Challenges student creativity Enhances student thinking, decision-making, and problem-solving. Promotes independent thinking and enables students to interpret information Supports students as producers as well as consumers Interactive Technology

  9. Incorporates technology as an integral part of the curriculum Communicates ideas through technological media (text, graphics, video, and sound) Expresses knowledge visually and verbally Develops understanding of technological influences on individuals and society as a whole. Technology Integration
