What can principals do to foster Literacy with ICT in their schools?

[or what do I think I’m currently doing that might be of some use for you to consider?]


Guiding ? for today’s presentation

“Of course” - Scott McLeod


I’d like to begin with this poster I recently saw online by Scott McLeod

“Of course” - Scott McLeod

I think this is a mindset I’m trying to promote in our school so people will try to infuse technology and be innovative ie. the usual answer is “yes let’s figure this out”. Business as unusual?

Pedagogy

Relationships

Technology


for the first part of todays presentation I’d like to frame our discussion around these 3 ideas

Pedagogy



some things were doing at École Riverside Schoolwhether its


ipods in K


ipad, making movies modifying fairy tales


own devices,


mobile laptops, in our middle years


netbooks, in our early years


or in the computer lab

Inquiry


our discussions about technology infusion center around an inquiry stance

Inquiry

Project based learningSunday, April 21, 2013

and project based learning

Literacy With ICT


brief overview of the continnuum Inquiry, gather and make sense and produce and show understanding

Inquiry


if we think of the Literacy with ICT continuum - give everyone a copy of this to read later, put poster on wall

Inquiry


we think of Inquiry as gather and make sense (consumption)

Gather and make sense (critical thinking)

Inquiry


and produce and show understanding (creation)and produce and show understanding as (creative thinking)discuss the difference between ICT literacy (the back of the poster) and Literacy with ICT (what i”m talking about now)


constant conversations about infusion, teaching, and learning with this guiding principle

“The highest goal in life is to inquire and create” – Noam Chomsky


I found this quote from a recent youtube video “The purpose of Education”

Pedagogy

Relationships

Technology


Relationships


I would like to share 4 stories of relationship building and projects in our school that came about because of the relationships that were established

Face to face - The story of teddybear travels


talk about sitting with Lois Fisher at Byte, how this happened, what it looked like, how it ties in to LwICT and the tech we used to support it


explain how this idea formed from the face to face conversation I had with Lois Fisher

Pedagogy

Relationships

Technology


of the 3 Relationships are the most critical, while understanding the pedagogy of Literacy with ICT, and using technology to support the ideas. My role is to foster the relationships, shape the pedagogy (through ongoing discussion), and suggest /negotiate which technologies can assist

Relationships


so how do you build strong relationships? .....

for our purposes substitute administrator for teacher... ie. the networked administratortoday we still have curriculum docs, colleagues, popular media, print and digital resources, and family/local community to help us be excellent administrators



and



and



and



and



and



and



and



and



and to help us do the job of being a principal / vice principal



but if we refocus on relationship building



generally we think of these 2 as the main ways to build relationships with other administrators and teachers



I’m suggesting there is a 3rd key component, that being twitter



so for the rest of today’s session we are focusing on twitter as one key way to enhance your Personal Learning Network


Before we look at how to develop your PLN let’s look at other things you can do with twitter

It’s not just what am I doing........


although the original idea of twitter was to replicate the status update bar of facebook, look what happens when you give a tool to a bunch of creative teachers who want to constantly refine their craft and get better at what they do....

It’s............What’s happening in Education?



explain what people are looking at herewho sent the tweet, the text the link


whats a RT by rodd and the #unplugd12 hashtag




It’s............People asking for help.




It’s............Sharing previous professional learning




It’s............Research




It’s............Sharing what’s happening in your school





It’s............Building community





It’s............Sharing what’s happening right now



live on cbc radio


or about to happen very soon.....




It’s............Sharing





It’s............tweets leading to deeper thought

ie. Blogposts
