Alan November, author of Web Literacy for Educators, engages participants in a laptop journey modeling 21st century learning tools. Before tractors and combines, more than 60% of the population in North America was involved in farming. Today that number is less than 2%. Farm children made vital contributions to the family with real chores. While technology eventually eroded the meaningful work of children, we can now focus its use to restore the dignity of real work in school. All of our students can use collaborative online tools and research and global communications skills to add value to the learning community.These contributions include:
- Tutorial Designers
- Official Scribes
- Researchers
- Tool Developers
- Collaboration Coordinators
- Curriculum Reviewers
- World Relations
Please share your thoughts on November's National Leadership Academy session in the comments section.
