The Assignment: This is part 1 on your final.

Reflection: Due on your website by the time you arrive in class Week 15. This may be a written project reflection or a multimedia movie or presentation. It is your choice. You may us any tool/app you want.

  1. Make sure you have research to back up what you are saying. Include example, links, images, movies, everything you can. Consider this a mini-research project, that counts has part of you final exam. You do not have to focus only on iPad integration, but keep in mind it is the current trend and schools are jumping into iPads with breakneck speeds.

  2. "Teachers, Throw Away the Old Playbook," in which the argument is made that teachers who are teaching the traditional ways and ignoring the fact that technology has affected the way today's students learn are doing a disservice to the students and themselves. Disruption and feeling a little uncomfortable isn't a bad thing for teachers.
  3. Think about the term Tridigital learning: A balance between past, present and future is essential as we move education forward. Join me as I work with educators and share what I see and learn!

  4. Think about Imagining the best learning space...We all see school the way we've always know it, How do we re-imagine it?


    NOTE: There are no right or wrong answers here, this should be your thinking and what you believe your classroom is going to be one day. BUT make sure you have some facts and document them.


Your work/project should reflect scholarly thought and writing. This needs examples and research to back up what you are saying.
