eLearning Leaders Network PLT Western Sub-region 8th August, 2012
Share our work in our Schools……….. Reflecting on our Ultranet, EduSTAR and NSSCF 1:1 Program (Secondary), Implementation in our Schools: – • What have we done? • What has worked successfully? • Share examples of what is taking place in your school to build up a profile in our networks. • What assistance do you need to sustain Ultranet Implementation to support your Core work? – Is it at Leadership level? Whole School Planning level? Is it at PLT level?
Support for Curriculum Planning and Delivery through your PLT……… Learning Intention – To gain an insight into / familiarisation with the following teaching and learning digital content by exploration and brainstorming ideas on how they might be shared with your staff and utilised as learning opportunities for your students.
To build an eLearning Program that is immersed in the curriculum sustainable, replicable and scalable, we need to… • Build a shared vision from Leadership down – Are all Leaders on the same page?
Clarify your school leadership position to support curriculum on: Ultranet Implementation 1 to 1 device implementation and support Digital Content Develop a coherent strategy to deliver on those goals Included through the PLT process (not as a separate focus)
• Set clear expectations for everyone • Monitor effective execution
Whole School Approach…
Literacy
Whole School Curriculum Planning Approach
…that is sustainable replicable and scalable…every child can benefit.
Planning……….. PLANNING TOOL……………
Bold and ambitious teaching practice: What are the resulting experiences for your students? • Is it what they did before, but done with technology? • Is it something different, rather than innovative? • Is it genuinely improving the learning experiences for students? If so how? Can you very clearly articulate that improvement? • How is it impacting on the lives of your students? • How is immersive access increasing the learning opportunities for your students? • What is the scale of improved experience? ie how often, across which classes, and over what period of time?
What the research tells us about embedding eLearning into curriculum planning ubiquitously… • Increase in 21st century learning skills – including multimedia engagement, greater quality/quantity of writing, multiple/deeper investigation of information (Warschauer, 2005) • Motivation, engagement, independent work, interaction, and class preparation/participation of students with disabilities improved (Harris, 2004) • Access to a 1:1 device for teachers and their students often forced a change in teachers’ level of risk and openness to learning (Rockman, 1997) • As digital confidence grows, and teachers are more ambitious… More students are accessing more mathematics in deeper ways. Students explore new dimensions of accessing new knowledge Students are more engaged in in-depth research (Warschauer, 2004)
