10. Using 21st Century Tools to Teach 21st Century Skills

11. Framework for 21st Century Learning • The Framework presents a holistic view of 21st century teaching and learning that combines a discrete focus on 21st century student outcomes. • A blending of specific skills, content knowledge, expertise and literacies.

12. Why Web 2.0 and 21st Century Teaching? • Major disparity between what students learn in school and what they need to function in the workforce • Advances in technology • Fast access to knowledge • Global competition • Rising workforce capabilities Partnership for 21st Century Skills (2007). Learning for the 21st Century.

25. Language Translators • For students learning a language or teachers with a student who speaks another language, language translators are a great help. • Beware, they aren’t always accurate! • BonPatron.com is recommended by my teen son • Dictionary.com Translator is also available http://bonpatron.com/en/

46. Educational Technology

47. Educational Philosophy Three main theoretical schools or philosophical frameworks have been present in the educational technology literature. These are: • Behaviorism • Cognitivism • Constructivism

48. Bloom's Taxonomy is a classification of learning objectives within education. Bloom's Taxonomy divides educational objectives into three "domains:" Affective, Psychomotor, and Cognitive. Within the taxonomy learning at the higher levels is dependent on having attained prerequisite knowledge and skills at lower levels (Orlich, et al. 2004). A goal of Bloom's Taxonomy is to motivate educators to focus on all three domains, creating a more holistic form of education.

49. Educational Technology Educational technology is the study and ethical practice of facilitating learning and improving performance by creating, using and managing appropriate technological processes and resources.

50. Benefits Educational technology is intended to improve education over what it would be without Technology: • Easy-to-access course materials. • Student motivation. • Wide participation. • Improved student writing. • Subjects made easier to learn.
