  2. Professional Interests • “I believe that computers are lousy teachers. They should be used to engage students in critical thinking by functioning as knowledge representation formalisms (i.e. mindtools).” http://web.missouri.edu/jonassend/mindtools.html http://www.doh.state.fl.us/Planning_eval/Vital_Statistics/baby_on_computer.jpg

  3. Mindtools • computer based tools and learning environments • adapted or developed to function as intellectual partners with the learner • engage and facilitate critical thinking and higher- order learning http://www.coe.ufl.edu/webtech/GreatIdeas/pages/peoplepage/jonassen.htm http://2t2ks.com/picture.jpg

  4. Examples of Mindtools • Databases • semantic networks • expert systems and cognitive simulations for student modeling • multimedia/hypermedia http://greencanada.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/databases.jpg http://www.coe.ufl.edu/webtech/GreatIdeas/pages/peoplepage/jonassen.htm

  5. Using the 5 Mindtools • The Database Mindtool: Database management systems are electronic filing cabinets that are easier to scan through. • The Graph Mindtool: graphing is one of the great organizational skills in learning, this helps students see their work and what it means. • Concept Mapping: helps organize thoughts, some programs are; inspiration, Kidspiration and the Brain.

  6. 5 Mindtools continued… • The Search Internet Mindtool: Using the internet for successful learning. It is of utmost importance for a student to know and explore at least 20-30 different search engines. • The Visualization Mindtool: a complete lesson can be covered through pictures and words by using a multimedia program such as PowerPoint or HyperStudio, or even by utilizing a WebQuest. This is most beneficial in teaching and learning once it is done • http://thejournal.com/articles/2005/04/01/using-mindtools-in-education.aspx
