7. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Brian Cambourne - 1988  Children acquire early learning when certain conditions are present in their environments, both at home and at school  He cites eight conditions for learning Research on Conditions for Learning Conditions for Learning ImmersionDemonstrationExpectationResponseApproximationUseResponsibilityEngagement

8. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Students need to be surrounded with interesting, high-quality books and different kinds of text  Generate lively engagement for learning (games, dance, read-aloud, singing, word games)  How does educational technology fit into this frame?

9. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Model reading and writing  Let students see you writing notes, letters, stories, recipes, lists  Make sure they see you reading for pleasure, for information, for directions, and other purposes  How do we model the use of educational technology?

10. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant *Set realistic, yet high expectations *Be familiar with developmental stages of emergent literacy *Provide ongoing support in appropriate tasks *What are our expectations related to instructional technology?

11. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Listen to children (learner)  Welcome their comments and questions  Provide ongoing non-threatening feedback  Celebrate their learning on a daily basis  How are we responding to students engaged in learning via educational technology?

12. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Accept student’s mistakes when learning new tasks  Congratulate them on their accomplishments  Guide them into accuracy toward a self-correct mode  How are we supporting educational technology learning?

13. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Create climate for functional and meaningful uses of learning  Engage in conversations and model learning activities for students  How meaningful and functional is educational technology?

14. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Provide choices and access to learning materials  Promote self-direction  How do we promote student responsibility related to instructional technology?

15. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Help children become active learners  Setup a risk-free learning climate to experiment with various activities  Provide access to instructional tools – technology, included  How are we engaging students in educational technology?

16. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant Reflection 1) How do these “Conditions for Learning” apply to educational technology and the binational migrant student? 2) What else would you add to the list?

17. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant Identifying Available Instructional Technology Tools  Review sample list from InET Website  Share those currently utilized and how they support binational migrant students  Avoid supplanting based on those already funded by other sources  Focus on innovative uses to support binational migrant students  Identify barriers to providing essential technology tools  How can we collaborate to ensure these are accessible to the binational migrant student?

18. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant Building Capacity to Effectively Implement Educational Technology  Review unique needs of binational migrant students  Review current implementation programs and practices  Become familiar with how different technology tools and devices can be applied through hands-on demonstration  Seek professional development on use of instructional technology from identified Coaches and via Webinars

19. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant Understanding Blended Learning Traditional Classroom Instruction Online and Educational Technology Labs Blended Instruction Teacher-directed learning Students enroll in online classes in a self- paced manner Classroom instruction is connected to online learning which enhances classroom learning Limited use of technology Students access campus technology lab on a scheduled basis Student and teacher are partners in the connected learning process

20. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant  Students watch lectures at home on their own pace  Communicate with peers and teachers via online discussions  Engage in more concept mastery exercises and collaborative work classroom Moves the homework into the classroom The “Flipped Classroom”

21. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant Assessing the Results  How do you currently assess the results of program implementation?  Review the conditions for implementing a successful educational technology program for binational migrant students  Use InET Form 4 to evaluate the outcome of a specific educational technology tool

22. Innovative Technologies: Overview InET Consortium Incentive Grant Outlining Improvement Efforts  Review areas that indicate educational technology goal has been met  Review areas where educational technology goal has not been met and cause for not meeting goal  Outline strategies for meeting goals
