Overview • Some Philosophy • How do teachers learn to integrate technology? • Five Possible Lesson Idea Categories • Our Tech Integration Academy Goals http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
So What? “It’s philosophy, not technology, that is going to make a difference in your classroom.” Dr. Allen Glenn, Dean of COE, Univ of Washington http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
“In a global economy, it is education, not location, that determines the standard of living.” -Albert Hoser, CEO of Siemens http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
Technology is a TOOL: A Means to an End--not an End in itself http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
Living with Testing • How is technology use perceived by most teachers? • TAAS/TAKS ≠ the ultimate educational achievement • TAKS = standard expectation we fulfill along the way in our educational journey TAKS http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
Roger Wagner ... “The world is moving from word-based communication to a technology mediacentric society.” http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
The World has changed • “Law of The Photon” • Floppy Disk = 1.4 MB • 1 Compact Disk = 650 MB (entire GME) • Ethernet speed is 10 Mbps: 1 CD-ROM in 60 seconds • Fiber Optics = 10 Gbps • 1 fiber strand can transmit 8000 CD-ROMs per second http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
The speed just gets faster • In the late 1990s, Lucent Bell Labs has achieved transfer rate of 5 trillion bits per second • Jan 2001: Lucent announced 1.6-trillion-bit-per-second networking system (320 million • one-page e-mails simultaneously) • Bandwith triples every 12 months at current rates • Prediction is this will continue for 20 years • We are in the stone age of the photonics age http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
Jobs of the Future 85% of the jobs for today’s 5th graders (when they graduate) have not been invented yet http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
How Do Teachers Learn to Integrate? • Entry • Adoption • Adaptation • Appropriation • Invention http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
1. Entry • Learn the basics of using the new technology http://www.windsornet.com/info/turn-key.htm http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
2. Adoption • Use technology to support traditional instruction http://www.microsoft.com/office/powerpoint/ http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
3. Adaptation • Integrate new technology into traditional classroom practice. Here, they often focus on increased student productivity and engagement by using word processors, spreadsheets, and graphics tools. http://developer.intel.com/procs/perf/PentiumIII_820/ http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
4. Appropriation • Discover new uses for technology tools, for example, developing spreadsheet macros for teaching algebra or designing projects that combine multiple technologies http://developer.intel.com/procs/perf/PentiumIII_820/ http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
5. Invention • Focus on cooperative, project-based, and interdisciplinary work-- incorporating the technology as needed and as one of many tools http://fresno.edu/dept/sps/dbartsch/int2014/index.htm http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
ACOT Key Competencies • Dynamically explore and represent ideas • Able to experiment and problem solve • High degree of social awareness and self confidence • Effective communication of ideas, using tools http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia http://www.rm.com/schools/seminars/scet/sld017.htm
ACOT Key Competencies (2) • Use computers productively • Are independent learners • See themselves as collaborators and experts • Have a positive orientation to the future http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
Five Possible Technology Integration Idea Categories http://www.wtvi.com/teks/tia
