How did we begin to move our faculty?

Exploration of the meaning of literacy: Literacy is a set of skills that reflect the needs of the time. As those needs shift, then our definition of literacy shifts. Kylene Beers Adolescent Literacy

“It will be important to reconcile narrowed definitions of reading (and hence reading instruction) with the need to develop young people’s critical awareness as they engage with multiple sign systems.” Donna Alverman Adolescent Literacy “It will be important to reconcile narrowed definitions of reading (and hence reading instruction) with the need to develop young people’s critical awareness as they engage with multiple sign systems.” Donna Alverman Adolescent Literacy

from The National Council of Teachers of English Literacy has always been a collection of cultural and communicative practices shared among members of particular groups. As society and technology change, so does literacy. Because technology has increased the intensity and complexity of literate environments, the twenty-first century demands that a literate person possess a wide range of abilities and competencies, many literacies. These literacies—from reading online newspapers to participating in virtual classrooms—are multiple, dynamic, and malleable.

“This is indeed my concern – that we’ll all default to the demands of academic literacy, that we’ll focus on how much we need to teach to make sure kids reach that magical AYP mark, and that in doing so we’ll forget (or perhaps never learn) that how we teach in this new ‘flat’ world Thomas Friedman so aptly describes in The World Is Flat (2005) is probably more important than how much we teach.” Kylene Beers Adolescent Literacy

Faculty summer reading Opening day group discussions of The World Is Flat

Group discussion What are the implications for what we teach? What are the implications for how we teach? What do you need to know next?

Implications for what we teach. Communication, Evaluating Sources, Critical thinking Skills, Collaboration, Global Awareness

Implications for how we teach Student Engagement Effective Technology Inquiry/Problem Solving Integrated Curriculum Student Engagement Effective Technology Inquiry/Problem Solving Integrated Curriculum

What we need to know next. Technology How to begin collaborating across curricular areas How to foster critical thinking How to get kids interested Are there things we can eliminate from our curriculum Technology How to begin collaborating across curricular areas How to foster critical thinking How to get kids interested Are there things we can eliminate from our curriculum

What did we do with the responses?

FROM Content TO Skills

Workshops focused on skills across the curriculum ContentSkills Vocabulary ELL Strategies Synthesizing Texts Active Reading Templates Cornell Notes

What are you doing at your school to move from content to skills?

Technology Workshops

Teachers are Blogging

Teachers and Students are Wiki-ing

Teachers and students are collaborating

Teachers Using Technology Blogs Wikispaces Google Documents iMovie Moodle Quizlab Creating Smart Web Users

What are your biggest obstacles to getting there?

If the leaders don’t get it, it’s not going to happen. dangerouslyirrelevant.org Resistant Administrators?

Work with your administrative team

Hesitant faculty?

Start with your early adopters and risk- takers

Time?

Staff Development Priority Institutes PLC time School/District incentives

Resources?

What do you have available? Computers in the school? Access to school computers before and after school? Tech support? Students with computers at home? Public library?

Outdated policies?

What are we going to ask on our tests, when our students are walking in with Google in their pocket? Are they going to be better questions than we ask today? David Warlick dangerouslyirrelevant.org

Given the realities of our modern age and the demands of the future, is it okay for teachers to choose NOT to incorporate digital technologies into their instruction? dangerouslyirrelevant.org
