Your analysis So what are the technical and other skills that make up digital literacy for your context? Check the Digital Learning Expectations from EQ for your context – see class blog Compare to the ISTE standards for students. What did our twitter stream reveal? Any reflections?

Homework For tut Read the QLD ICT expectations for students (age group specific) Check ISTE standards for selected age group. Bring them to tut. Bring along or know where a collection of photos of your family/friend etc are for workshop For the week Ad for online event in Forum by Monday 26 th or before Read chapters 1-2 and skim 3 of the text. (Should be second reading and so fast) Skim Week 4 ramble for things that fill in gaps for you. Revisit the example ICT idea you investigated in the tut. What would you improve? What better idea do you have that develops ICT expectations and illustrates your pedagogy through the TPACK Model?

National examples Log into USQ to register

First look at national examples Select an example (chosen year level). Work through table of contents. What is the key curriculum idea? What do kids learn? What do kids produce? Would students demonstrate their ICT skills on the profiling grid?

Tpack

Second look at the national example Select same example (chosen year level). What were the explicit demonstrations of the TPACK components? What different pedagogical choices might you make? More TTF discussion next week when you construct an idea with the model.
