3 Inspiration Vs. Perspiration

 Authentic learning experiences  Grounded in critical thinking  Well scaffolded  Student-centric but teacher-dependent  Firmly grounded in the curriculum  Cross-curricular  Example: › › 4

 Allow you to perform tasks or create objects without software.  Often known as “Web 2.0” applications.  Often have an element of social interaction.  Accessible from anywhere.  Usually FREE! 5

 Applications go up and down.  Applications get bought out.  Web applications sometimes allow students to interact with other people online. Most tools have privacy settings to keep minors safe.  Students’ privacy should be considered. Some tools can be completely private, but others not. 6

 Applications may create thing that can’t leave the confines of the particular web site (e.g./ can’t be downloaded to a disc/dvd/etc…)  Students with computers at home may get to spend more time on projects than students without since it’s easily accessible. 7

 Consider room setup.  Consider privacy settings.  Consider parental permission.  Consider school/district technology policy.  Consider addresses and sign-up logistics. 8

 Some Web 2.0 sites may be blocked at your school… you can sometimes get around this.  Submit a request to your technology department.  Provide a pedagogical justification for the site to be unblocked at your school during a certain period of time.  Describe how you will keep students safe. 9
