A passionate student is a learning student. As the people of the world are becoming increasingly connected, the nature, use, ownership, and purpose of knowledge are changing in profound ways. Our goal as educators is to leverage these connections and changes as powerful means to improve teaching and learning in our schools. Using digital media and web-based tools, students are building their own learning experiences, constructing meaning, connecting and collaborating with subject matter experts from around the world. Many teachers who use these empowering technologies are now discovering we can have rigor without sacrificing excitement. The secret: Focus on student passion and interest, not the machines, software and tools.
Welcome to 21st Century Collaborative- my new diggs where I have embedded my Webpage and Blog into one. I hope you will connect and collaborate with me here as we become co-learners in this fast changing world. Together, as a community of educator learners let’s support each others’ efforts as we will figure out how to adapt to the shifts in learning, leading, and teaching in the 21st Century.
Thanks for dropping by 21st Century Collaborative. Come join in on the conversation, I am eager to learn from/with you. Remember- “None of us is as good as all of us.”
