When viewing the model as a ladder it indicates that the goal is always redefinition, when in reality it is a cyclic process in which we need to be able to "wade" between the levels of technology integration. Just as in a model like Bloom's, we can't always be at the highest level. Each step is important in the overall learning process.

Instead, we can fluidly move from section to section based on the pedagogy and purpose of the learning.]]> 2016-11-14 16:20:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kkruk_depd/3sg58hhwph34/wish/137428970 https://padlet.com/kkruk_depd/3sg58hhwph34/wish/137429182 2016-11-14 16:20:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kkruk_depd/3sg58hhwph34/wish/137429182 dvenanzi09 https://padlet.com/kkruk_depd/3sg58hhwph34/wish/137436834 This article reminds us that students are stakeholders as well. We need to work with them as collaborators in this new, unchartered territory. It goes back to first providing the scaffolding for them with the intent that they eventually take the reigns; students can then create possibilities for themselves. When allowing students to experiment with technology they will teach us as we teach them.]]> 2016-11-14 16:35:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kkruk_depd/3sg58hhwph34/wish/137436834 jlaforgia_depd https://padlet.com/kkruk_depd/3sg58hhwph34/wish/137438627 The article emphasizes that teachers often need to relinquish control and place students in charge of their own learning.  By allowing our own fears about different areas of the pool dictate the teaching and learning in our classroom, we do our students a great disservice.

Baby steps in the beginning and then moving forward until they are comfortable on their own. Without those initial steps it is hard to get to where you need to go. Eventually the students will take off and be teaching others and the teachers what they have learned.]]> 2016-11-14 16:39:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kkruk_depd/3sg58hhwph34/wish/137438807
