“How much?”

Quality of use How students are

using technology Quality of product

Six Levels

Level Four- Target Level

Adopted by many states

At Level Four best chance for student learning potential

Students use of digital tools and resources is inherent and motivated by the drive to answer student-generated questions that dictate the content, process, and products embedded in the learning experience.

Promoting higher-level cognition

Student-inquiry (Student lead questions)

Authentic connections

Rigor and high expectations

1. Standard texting rates only (worst cast US $0.20)2. We have no access to your phone number3. Capitalization doesn’t matter, but spaces and spelling do

TIPS

Promethean Lesson Maui Movie Tessellations

Let’s give this the LoTI “sniff” test….

1. Watch each lesson2. Use the LoTI “sniff test” flow chart3. What level do you think each lesson belongs

to?

What did you identify as the best technology project you saw in your school last year?

What LoTI level do you believe the lesson falls in?

Did this project encourage 21st century skills? If so, what skills?

What ISTE skills were promoted in this lesson?

Marzono’s Work

Classroom Instruction that Works

Marzono’s Research

Promethean use: 17% Achievement Gain

"You don't get gains from technology... you get gains from changing the learning environment with technology"Twitter quote from #ties09 “quoting Marzono”

For the past 8 years the LoTI level for teachers completing the survey has been a “2”. Still is….

The building principal controls the LoTI level.

Student Profiles

44 states have adopted these or other tech standards

Minnesota still does not have a set of grade level measureable technology standards…..

Engage

The illiterate of the future will not be the person who cannot read. It will be the person who does not know how to learn.

Alvin Toffler

Awash in too many ideas…

Where to start?

It’s a little like herding cats.

School leader is critical

Start small

Measure progress

Support and encouragement

Reduce barriers

Increase access

$$$ is not always the answer

Higher-level thinking focus

I like the Smartboard, but I think that all kids should have their own small smartboards so that we could do more stuff….

Digital- Age Literacy

Remember that schools may be the only place for some children to access technology

TALK to students about what they need- they know!

Let Children Create
