  2. Media technology parent module expectations: in other words, here is what I expect that you will learn! • To BRIEFLY experience what a module is like • To understand the standards addressed • To understand the Class Rationale • Learn about one of the media technology programs by having your child teach you

  3. Media Technology Standards • National Educational Technology Standards: creativity and innovation communication and collaboration Research and information fluency Critical thinking and Problem Solving Technology operations and Concepts • Colorado Career and technical Education Career Cluster Model STEM (Science, technology, Engineering, Math) Arts, Design, & Information Technology

  4. Class Rationale • "The meaning of 'knowing' has shifted from being able to remember and repeat information to being able to find and use it." Herbert Simon • “If we teach students today like we did yesterday, we rob them of tomorrow.” John Dewey

  5. Class rationale - continued Except from an email from Dr. Bart Dahmer – Director of Information Technology for FedEx, Memphis, TN and CEO of Innovo Publishing, LLC • “I like the way you set the class up. We (Federal Express) are constantly looking for people who have strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as well as people who can communicate a message. So the more opportunity they (your students) have to learn this, the better….Employees who can actually think their way through business problems and find ways to solve them instead of waiting to be told what to do, are worth their weight in gold. Innovative, action-oriented employees with strong troubleshooting and communications skills are often our top performers and receive higher pay and more recognition for their contributions.”

  6. Media technology Modules The modules offered are simply tools to give students the opportunity to: • Practice the skills addressed in the National Educational Technology standards • Explore a variety of careers in the areas of STEM, Arts, A/V Technology and communication, and Information Technology • To understand how creativity, communication, collaboration, research and information fluency, problem solving and technology operations and concepts are important in the careers that are associated with that module. • Have fun learning!
