Three reasons not to listen to me talk about technology in Algebra class And one good reason to listen. And why the reasons matter.

1. To prepare millennials for the 21 st century.

nope.

2. Kids can just Google facts or use the calculator on their phones.

Solve for x: 6(x + 7) = x

Equivalence Properties of Real Numbers Seeing Structure in Expressions

Equivalence Seeing Structure in Expressions Transformations

2. Kids can just Google facts or use the calculator on their phones. nope.

Use ALL the tools!

3. It’s not enough to know something, these days you have to be able to explain it.

nope.

BuildingTesting Mode 1 from our own encounters with the physical world; experience against expectations of events in the physical world: experiment Mode 2 from the schemas of others: communication comparison with the schemas of others: discussion Mode 3 from within, by formation of higher order concepts: extrapolation, imagination, intuition: creativity comparison with one’s own existing knowledge and beliefs: internal consistency Skemp, R.

Answer-getting!Speed! Rules & Certainty!

Why do you have kids use technology? Why do you have kids do problem solving? Why do you have kids talk and listen to each other?

So… don’t come to my talk! To force yourself to learn about 21 st century skills Or how to teach millennials with fancy pocket technology Or how to get kids to explain their work on new tests

Critical reasoning & targeted problem-solving Students sharing and critiquing their own & others’ ideas Technology that facilitates and engages
