GDRSD Innovation Lab Course - Google Docs
Student Technology Integration: Innovation Lab Course The Innovation Lab course is a hands on study of technology integration in an educational context. Students will be required to assess problem sets throughout the day and define the best approach to addressing or solving the problem. In addition to solving problems for students and teachers, students will be required to complete and maintain several running projects that address problems or solutions in educational technology integration. The course also asks students to have a prior understanding of Apple OS, Microsoft Windows OS, and the iPad iOS. This course seeks students who are self-motivated learners and use inquiry to drive their exploration and experiment in order to reach greater discovery. It is the one course where failing is an option on occasion.

- Technology alone won’t be enough to improve teaching and learning to where it needs to be for 21st century skills. Where it is being done successfully, teachers collectively share a vision of promoting deeper learning in all their students, and have collaboratively redesigned the role of the teacher to that of facilitator who uses technology as a tool in their educational aims. As facilitators, teachers become learning strategists as they constantly plan ways to enable students to master complex content knowledge and develop their critical thinking, problem solving, communication, and collaboration skills

"Many teachers are making the foray into using social media with their students. I am at the point of ‘dipping’ my toe in. There’s a number of things I’ve learned, and found out, as I have started tweeting to students and wanted to collect my thoughts on keys in beginning this path."

"Teaching With and About Technology"
-
This might work, with some tweaks, for final essay "Students: Tell us how you use Facebook. (And if you’re not on Facebook, please tell us why.) What do you usually do on Facebook? How much time do you usually spend on it in a typical day? Do you ever worry about your privacy or take steps to protect it? Do you often multitask, switching between using Facebook and doing homework or studying? What do you think about the findings about how specific activities on Facebook, like posting and viewing photos, correlate with things like grades and engagement in student activities? Do these findings apply to you?"
-
"What are the potential benefits and drawbacks of using technology for learning? Are tech tools essentials, distractions or somewhere in between? How are other teachers using technology? What tech skills do today’s teachers need to use digital tools effectively? We present a collection of Learning Network resources, Times multimedia and articles and useful outside links to help both digital immigrants and digital natives think through these questions."

Build a collaborative platform for teachers and students the world over to contribute to our ever-growing curriculum collaborations and student-created content. Our goal is to help our students answer these three Essential Questions: What does it mean to be a (digital) citizen? What are my rights as a citizen? What are my responsibilities as a citizen?"
