I've just begun using Delicious social bookmarking. The list above shows the few I've added to my collection. From now on, every new bookmark will include a tag called "EDTC6070". If everyone who has registered for this class adds this tag we will soon have an excellent collection within a great social group on Delicious. Search EDTC6070 to find all the bookmarks added by everyone who knows about the ECU class EDTC6070 Digital Literacy in K12 Classrooms.

TPACK: The Silver Bullet

Punya Mishra and Matt Koehler at Michigan State University have generated a model of instruction known as TPACK-- Technology Pedagogy and Content Knowledge. The basic premise is content varies by concepts, skills, preconceptions, and perceptions all of which can be represented using various methods and tools. Content is best communicated using a variety of instructional strategy. The methods and strategies are also known as pedagogy. How you teach is the pedagogy. What you teach is content. Most content are presented to students as abstract ideas. Skills are often taught in an artificial setting. Through the use of the appropriate technology, teaching methods can be greatly augmented. The instructor can design a lesson that is a metaphor of the concept. For example, using ipods, students can create a video scenario explaining an abstract idea (such as copyright or cyberbulling). Authenticity in a lesson greatly enhances potential for concept attainment. Students take ownership through a self-generated drama script. Basic facts must be gathered from reliable resources. This leads to inquiry learning and a second pedagogical method. A student-generated script falls into the category of generative learning (pedaogy based on constructivist environments).

The technology must always augment the pedagogy and content. Like the shell, yoke, and white of an egg--- loss of any of the three would change the taste and goodness of the egg. For more information on TPACK see: http://punya.educ.msu.edu/research/tpck/

Glenn Bull has provided a framework for Web 2.0 and the various tools that connect learners.
We connect through our writings (Blogger); we share meaningful images (Flickr); we talk out loud for the world to hear (podcasts), and we're bigger producers of media than network televisions (YouTube). By mixing and matching Web 2.0 tools, we provide a platform for learning that is personally meaningful for every student in our class.

This is an example of how Web 2.0 can be used for a making meaning in our learning. Students share equally with instructor to share meaning in their classroom.

Welcome 2010

Welcome to spring semester_2010_Twenty Ten! Do you say, two thousand and ten, or twenty ten for the new year? Twenty Ten makes me think of the old scifi movie The Time Machine. I think we have finally arrived to the scifi era. Certainly if you are a SecondLife fan, you can relate to futurist notions of what life is like.

If you are enrolled in one of my classes for for this semester, I hope you will login for an account to this blog. I plan to update this regularly with news and reviews of multimedia for K12 Classrooms and also current best practices in school technology programs. Both should be topics of interest to graduate students in Instructional Technology.

Please subscribe and post as often as time permits.
