Arming teachers in the classroom from Michael Carpenter
ISTE-NETS Standard
1. Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity Teachers use their knowledge of subject matter, teaching and learning, and technology to facilitate experiences that advance student learning, creativity, and innovation in both face-to-face and virtual environments. a. Promote, support, and model creative and innovative thinking and inventiveness b. Engage students in exploring real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources c. Promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students’ conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes d. Model collaborative knowledge construction by engaging in learning with students, colleagues, and others in face-to-face and virtual environments
Summary
In today's competitive world, getting behind in technology can put you at a huge disadvantage. Teachers need to constantly search for new ways to reach their students. Using modern technology is a key way teachers can do that. Students want to know how to use the latest technologies from Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc. We can use these programs to facilitate education. Many of these programs also promote individuality and creativity, which should always be encouraged with all students. The Think aloud project gave me the opportunity to use technology to make my own decisions, evaluating a website based on the knowledge I found, as well as using other information to back up the site's claims. I will use this project to encourage students to think for themselves, as well as making a powerpoint presentation and posting it online in a viewable format. So much information is on the internet, and it is important for students to differentiate between the facts and the opinions.
