Technology in the Classroom is NOT the End Goal,

Enabling Learning everywhere is the Goal

Does the BumbleBEEMeet Expectations For Flying?

Did the Bumble Bee meet the goal of flying even though we dont understand?

Bumble Bees dont know they cant flyWe use the same learning model for Understanding by Design to look at the end goal, and work backwards.http://chrismartinphotography.files.wordpress.com/2013/08/bee-flight-c2a9-christopher-martin-8894.jpg

Constructed?

I prefer to remove digital from the mindset, but it does still have some relevance as my mom will bring a contest entry to me, ask me to check her blood test online, order a part online but she doesnt have a SMART phone or computer. She is quite SMART and does income tax by hand still and will ask me to enter and see if computer sees something else. Her friend that she went to school with has had numerous computers, laptops, iPads, and a SMART phone. Are they citizens yes. Are they both functional yes. Are they both independent No

In familiar situations, with some support or guidance, I communicate with peers and adults.

I understand and share basic information about topics that are important to me, and participate in conversations for a variety of purposes (e.g., to connect, help, be friendly, learn/share).

I listen and respond to others. I can work with others to achieve a short-term, concrete goal; I do my share. I can recount simple experiences and activities, and tell something I learned

So what activity could we create to foster this learning experience using an online data source such as the BC Digital Classroom.How do we move it to a transformative experienceHow do we assess the learning? Do we?53
